Sellindge

We played at Sellindge music festival on Sunday which started off with me picking up raf and his drum kit at 10 in the morning
Only finding out when we got to the festival that they had a house kit we could use…dam!
Anyway was great fun…the BBC Kent introducing tent had a great atmosphere and actually seemed to be more buzzing than the main stage, particularly
later on in the day when a band called Los Salvadores played a blinding, ska/punk/gypsy/folk a la Gogo Bordello type set…the crowd were going mad for them!
Also watched Polka party…they were great and had some really catchy songs, particularly one about Surbian tennis!!
Saw Royal treatment plant play the main stage…we got them to play at our single launch earlier this year and they are lovely and very good!
Also bumped into Megan from the brilliant Thomas Tantrum as they played on the main stage on the Saturday…theyre a great band to see live
so try and catch them if you can!
So all in all it was a lovely little weekend, although I must say I’m never gonna do a heavy night of drinking before a festival
ever again…my voice is so broken and husky today…I sound like Frank Butcher 

I was drawn back to the cheap allure of the Afterskool club in London…but it’s in a new venue now and doesn’t really feel the same as the old one…
Also seemed to be loads of really young girls there who were just going round snogging loads of guys who were all mates…they were literally playing pass the parcel with these
girl’s mouths…so GROSS!
Think of the lip herpes haha!

Anyway enough about that…will post up photos from the weekend soon
