Awh you’re kidding me, i got to the body & soul for Beach House 5 mins late of the 1.15 starting time on my own cos everyone went back to the campsite & waitied for some useless act to finish but never happened so left after 20 mins assuming they’d cancelled. 🙁
I think they played about an hour late or something in the end.

Great weekend all round! 🙂
Yeah, that fupping band played for what seemed like 3 hours. Beach House definitely played, we waited for ages for them and it was totally worth it. Was looking forward to them more than any other act and they nailed it. V nice people too.
