twats in the park.
I'm not a fan of music festivals, I must confess. There is something about queuing up in the rain to file into a huge open space flanked by portable toilets waiting to throw up their effluent which sets my teeth
on edge.
Would you bed down on a concrete stable floor on minimum wages just to muck out for R.E.M. and the Verve ?
This weekend's 'T' in the Park festival in Balado, Kinross-Shire, Scotland is no exception. Rest assured, I shall not be there.
For a hilariously scathing - in the main - account of 1985's Live Aid fiasco, head over to Any Major Dude With Half A Heart. You won't be disappointed. And you can reLIVE it from the comfort of your very own sagging chair in front of your monitor.
Hunching curmudgeonly crab-like over a table in some dimly lit venue is infinitely more my style.
I do like Tennents' Lager, though.
And they've banned consuming alcohol in public spaces, too. What is the world coming to ?
