Truck 'n' Shit
24th September 2007
Fucking brilliant as usual. Alex got to do ‘The Weight’ with Garth and Maud Hudson, and I boshed drums along to some Danny and The Champions Of The World. Cracking. Other than that, I thought Fonda 500 were hilarious and heavy and all the things a good Truck band should be, Buck 65 was on top form, as usual, I missed Youth Movies, which pissed me off, The Mules were just as good as when Brakes played with them at the Luminaire, if not better, Chris T-T was spot on for mid-sunday, and well, everything else (especially Easy Tiger). May I just say again, thank you to Robin, Joe, Chris, Katie, Edmund and Deborah for putting on the best festival the UK has, year after year. My kind of people.
On a completely different subject altogether: there are two albums everybody should be loving this autumn – the new Kevin Ayers record, entitled The Unfairground, and Robert Wyatt’s new creation, Comicopera. Buy them both. You will not be disappointed. If yr unfamiliar with either of them, there’s plenty of shit up on Youspace or whatever. Apparently Kevin Ayers doesn’t own a computer, so don’t expect no bloggs or nuffin. The album’s lush though.
I’m going to schleep.
