This is a not very good photo of Radiohead last night at the V Festival - hopefully soon I'll be able to post some much better ones from Simon's camera (this one was taken on my phone).
Had a brilliant day yesterday at V in Chelmsford - highlight was definitely Radiohead, but also enjoyed Bloc Party, the Magic Numbers and Beck. Beck had some marionettes of the band on stage with him that were very amusing and well done. He last played at V97 nine years ago which was the last time I went to the festival, with Simon. Radiohead played some new material but also a lot of the old favourites as wel, including, unusually, Creep.
We even went to see Kula Shaker for old time's sake.
Site was kind of muddy, especially the walk up to the entrance from the buses. None of us had gumboots on but loads of people did - very colourful pairs as well.
Travel home was tiring but surprisingly efficient (apart from getting back to Liverpool St when the tube had stopped and no cabs in sight). We had some very drunken Essex teens on the train with us which was particularly delightful.
