Well,apart from having a riot with Gillie and astounding sets from the Chili Peppers and Franz Ferdinand and surprisingly Guillemots (Spelling?),T in The Park is up there with my "Worst life experiences".Until Franz came on there were absolutely no bands on that I wanted to see,it's supposed to be a music festival for everyone,so why do they insist on having only one style of music?I mean seriously,there's like 8 tents and you think there would be some variation,but no,it's all Indie. So I just kinda wandered about with the Gillies most of the day.Nuclear Power?No thanks,it's a white elephant.Amidst the shite bands,I did however conujour some fun out of the day.I convinced a paintball dude that I was French,got my picture taken with a white elephant and I had a speech bubble lol,going to laugh at the people singing awfully in the karaeoke and of course,milkshakes from the Shaken Udder. So yeah,Chili Peppers very obviously owned,however,was slightly dissapointed as no Otherside,Around the World or indeed,Paralell universe,but still,they were on form and it was a fucking fantastic set.
Yeah,so then I got the bus home.Ten minutes out of the site,it breaks down,I shit you not.So we're all left waiting for 45 minutes until they sent another bus along,it was okay though,I made friends with the guy next to me lol,he was rather cool,we talked about Primal Scream,The Chili Peppers,Muse and Radiohead,was a bit of a legend really.Still,I felt pretty lonely lol.The bus up there was also a nightmare,I had to sit in this pure seat up the front because I was on my own and everyone was hammered apart from me.Gutted.So I came home at 2 o'clock,threw up and thought,fuck going back tomorrow.
