There's some festival going down in Yorkshire this weekend? Something about Radiohead playing?
Yeah. I am totally psyched.

Fun times in Mossley
This weekend saw the "biggest and best ever" Mozfest. For a festival with the main stage on the back of a lorry in a pub carpark in Mossley it was great (although I didn't actually see many bands and some scallies did my tent in).
Main priority of the weekend was of course to see my idols and good buddies Drink and Drive on the aforementioned lorry. Mozfest was their biggest gig to date and some lads even came from Warrington to watch them. Needless to say they were awesome, albeit probably not as awesome as narcotics led me to believe- I did at several points mention that Ben may be some sort of messiah.
I put a track on my TUMBLR PAGE for ya'll to listen to but you'll probably find it on myspace as well.
Next up were Where's Strutter?, who seem to have a massive fan following (massive for Mossley anyway) and a sound not dissimilar to the Courteeners. They've got quite a few gigs in the Northwest coming up so have a look at their page.
Headlining friday night were the Fayre. I admit that by this time I wasn't in the state to remember more than the fact that the singer looked like Kurt Cobain but the tunes on their myspace are pretty good. They supported the mighty Twisted Wheel in December so they can't be half bad.
Sunday was too cold to warrant doing anything but sitting around the fire but I did find time to finally catch the Manyanas who were as good as expected.
Like I always say, more photos are living on my flickr account so check them out (and make me look like a good photographer)

shock horror
Either blog buzz has worn off again, tumblr is taking up most of my time or else I'm having some sort of early (at least I hope) life crisis.
I probably am. Anyway I'm sure you're all aware of the indie wet dream that is the Reading and Leeds lineup. Radiohead. I'll say it again. Radiohead. Radiohead. Radiohead Radiohead Ra...
You get the idea. I've not shut up about it all week.
I'll leave you with this, which is possibly my favourite video ever and the perfect incentive to get dorks like me to apply for Visual Communication at old GSA.
Still: OMG RADIOHEAD
