It was Leeds Festival recently (25th August to 27th August) at Bramham Park and as editor of the Leeds Music Scene website I received press passes to attend and write.
Too much vodka removed any hope of words for Friday (although Klaxons were ace!), but I did write about the festivities on Saturday and Sunday. In short, I enjoyed Leeds bands The Pigeon Detectives and Shut Your Eyes And You’ll Burst Into Flames. I didn’t particularly like Panic! At The Disco. And other than their single (which I do like) I wasn’t so keen on The View.
Sheila said, “I’d rather stick a pen in my eye than watch The View again!”.
Says it all.
Hey Dave, I run a Carling Weekend music site and am interested to know about these press passes. Do you run Leeds Music Scene or are you a writer there? I’d really appreciate it if you could e-mail me and discuss some stuff.
Thanks
