Went to V two years ago to see Athlete, Foo's, Queens of the Stone Age, Feeder and the Chilli's, I really enjoyed it. Not a real festival though, just a gathering I'd say. Title: V Festival Highlights......... Post by: JMH75 on Monday, August 22, 2005, 11:36:08 I went this year and it was superb. :D
Joss Stone was indeed pony, but the three acts that followed her (Athlete, Embrace and Franz Ferdinand) were all great. Yesterday had a much better atmosphere than Saturday which was like a chav convention. Loads of shell suit wearing Oasis fans all getting shit faced and fighting with each-other. :beers: :box: Highlights of the festival for me were: - Saturday watching the Streets (not a huge fan but worked well as a festival act) with only a few others (okay 20,000) whilst the other 70,000 were watching the over rated and totally pony Kaizer Cheifs. - Doves, great set (as always) - Chemical Brothers (last act on the 2nd stage on Saturday) great. - New band called Diefenbach, very good. - Ian Brown, the monkey fan was amazing and only played to 5,000 of us crammed in to a tent last thing last night. Did his own stuff then played some classic Stone Roses. :\/ - Sonic Youth (the band not the TEF version) and Jet were also good. Not the same scale or as good as Glastonbury but a lot closer for me and plus it stayed dry all weekend. :wink: Cheers to Mex for the Blackpool game updates. 8) Title: V Festival Highlights.........

NMH Yes as in 'Game On', "TEA MARTIN TEA!" Ive got the dvd boxset as it is the mutts. Title: V Festival Highlights......... Post by: reeves4england on Monday, August 22, 2005, 13:04:55 Glasto is the daddy of all festivals, and nothing can top it.
But any gig with Oasis, Athlete and Kaiser Chiefs would be good in my eyes! Title: V Festival Highlights......... Post by: Nomoreheroes on Monday, August 22, 2005, 13:05:05 Ahhhhh ! You had me frantically searching the BBC website and UKNova.com to see if there was a new series. Agree that it was bloody good and sadly missing from today's TV lineup !

Title: V Festival Highlights......... Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, August 22, 2005, 14:08:35 Has anyone noticed that Martin is in those new Tango clear adverts? the "it's a metaphor" ads. He's the boss who sticks his head round the corner, I'm sure it's him.
