Both where superb at Glastonbury.  Brian Wilson in particular was fantastic.  Sunday afternoon sun, cold beers and beach boys hits.  Nice touch when he came on for his encore he seemed genuinely surprised and touched by the reaction he got and was good to see after the probs he's had.

what a fuckin night, first up magic numbers, good set, short and sweet, went down a storm.

then on came the legend, he really is not all there but those harmonies, out of this world. they did in my room and i actually had fuckin tears in my eyes. i must have been to over 1000 gigs in my life and nothing has even come close to that 2 and a half minutes, fuck knows why i was crying maybe because it was just perfect.

heroes and villains good vibrations, god only knows, all incredible.

then to top it all my mate who i went with was friends with the magic numbers tour manager, so have been sat drinking (water) with them till half one, top people and they have agreed to come and dj in my club.

lush. :D

Did they do Sloop John B?  I fucking love that song.  Listening to the Greatest Hits of the Beach boys as I type!!!  It's chilling me out in this corporate institution I work, looking forward to lunch and the two stella's that await me.

That Brian Wilson is one fucked up cookie, at Glasto he sat there and just stared at someone, cracking set they played though.

Did you get near the front for that one?

Place was packed probably the biggest croud of the lot we all had to settle for a place by the beer tent, which was no bad thing.
