Got back at about 1.30, face is crisped, throat is scratchy and feet are filthy... had a damned good time. Startling to see that all those flabby, pudgy teenagers last year have buffed up considerably - none more so than Damien Barber who was looking a little on the cuddly side when last I saw him... not so now! His costume last night at the Demon Barber Roadshow (Demons and Barbies theme) got more than the teenage girls hot under the collar! LTS mmm Liz, agreed on Damien Barber, quite scary too. Bry looked fabulous. And agreed about the teenagers, Last Orders seem to have grown up so much since last year. Nancy Kerr & James Fagan were really good, as were Van Eyken. Also impressed by Tom Kitching & Gren Bartley and Ruth Notman (accompanied by Saul Rose). Oysterband pulled out all the stops for Lee's last gig, quite emotional afterwards saying goodbye. I was pleased not to have to sit in the concert tent all night, I LOVE the new Dance House. Makes me feel young mixing with all those young people. ;) A wonderful festival, can't wait for next year.
