Glastonbury 2007 pt1: the build-up

[J77]

yer kidding aintcha? saw them on 2nd stage in the mudfest year, and they were mindbogglingly awesome. the bit where they went from where does it begin into private psychedelic reel was stupendous, made everyone we knew at home who was watching stop laughing at us and go 'fuck, wish i was there now', and its still one of my all-time live highlights.

Yeah - maybe if you get close enough - trouble is that Other stage is shite for sound is you're more than a third of the way from the front. I think the thing was, I actually went to that stage to see them - when I'd usually leave that part of Glasto to the indie kids. They'd probably be best on the Jazz World stage - definitely the best for beats, imo.

Hmmm...wonder if the White Stripes will? They're in Tennessee on 17th June, so its not completely out that they could make it back over
