iRViNE WELSH - i THiNK PERHAPS i JUST DON'T REALLY LiKE LiVE MUSiC AS i MUCH PREFERRED JUST LiSTENiNG TO iRVINE TALK
PETER HOOK AND THE LiGHT - i DON'T KNOW iF ANYONE ELSE WAS FOOLED BY THiS BUT iT APPEARED THE SECOND BASS PLAYER WAS THERE SO PETER COULD STOP PLAYiNG EVERYTiME THE VOCALS CAME iN. i GUESS HE CAN'T SiNG AND PLAY AT THE SAME TiME. SEEMED LAME TO ME SO i LEFT.

SUNDAY 10TH AUGUST
XRAY VEZ -WONK UNiT TAKiNG OVER THE FESTiVAL HA
HR BAD BRAiNS - iS THAT PADDY DiNGLE ON BASS?
D.O.A - i DiDNT REALLY CARE FOR THE MUSiC BUT THE SET WAS MADE INFiNiTELY BETTER BY THE GUY DANCiNG iN FRONT OF ME THAT LOOKED LiKE HE HAD COME STRAiGHT FROM WORK COMPLETE WiTH SHiRT AND TiE
HE HAD A PROPER PATRiCK BATEMAN ViBE.
TSOL - i THiNK THE iSSUE i HAVE WiTH OLD BANDS LiKE THiS iS iT REALLY FEELS LiKE BUSiNESS, HARDLY ANY ORiGiNAL MEMBERS AND PLAYiNG SONGS FOR DECADES i JUST DONT BUY THE PASSiON.
HELLE- THiS WAS GREAT, i ONLY CAUGHT THE LAST FEW SONGS BY ACCiDENT AFTER ABANDONING BORiNG OLD TSOL AND THiS WAS SO GOOD BY COMPARiSON. YOUNG PEOPLE PLAYiNG LiKE THEY ENJOY iT AND GIVE A SHiT BECAUSE THEY DO STiLL GIVE A SHIT AS i DOUBT THEY HAVE BEEN PLAYiNG THE SAME SONGS FOR DECADES, UNLESS THEY ARE A LOT OLDER THAN i HAVE ASSUMED.
PROBABLY MY MOST ENJOYABLE PART OF THE WEEKEND YET THEY HAD A SMALL AUDiENCE AS THEY WERE PLAYiNG LATE AND PROBABLY CLASHING WITH SOME OLD ESTABLiSHED BANDS GOiNG THROUGH THE MOTiONS
THE EXPLOiTED - i DiDN'T EXPECT TO LiKE THiS BUT THEY ARE ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD TO WATCH LiVE AND THE AUDiENCE WAS WELL iNTO iT.
GREAT BASS PLAYER WiTH EVEN GREATER DREADZ
BAD MANNERS i ONLY CAUGHT A COUPLE OF SONGS AS i WAS HOPiNG THE ROOM WOULD BE FULL OF MADNESS STYLE DANCiNG BUT SADLY NOT.
ALL iN ALL i DiD ENJOY REBELLiON A LOT MORE THAN i THOUGHT i WOULD AND WOULD CONSiDER BUYiNG A TICKET TO GO AGAiN NEXT YEAR
i DiDNT TAKE ANY PHOTOS AND DiDNT WATCH THiS BAND
