Was v. drunk for Coldplay, couldn't stand up properly, but I do remember swaying around and attempting to sing to the tunes, and being bathed in yellow light for Yellow!

Yeah it was the same but opposite..
On saturday we missed the first couple of bands, but was too late too see them anyway..
They were :-

Eisley
Echo & the bunny men (Actually wish i had seen him now )

Here's the line-up we saw for saturday.
Real Big Fish
(Strange jazz feel good band, enjoyed there energy if nothing else)
The Cardigans
(You could tell she didnt want to be there, and she kept moaning about playing old songs, but her new stuff is rubbish)
The Hives
(Quite entertaining, but there music all sounded the same except for a couple, he reminds me of mick jagger and was milking the crowd for a response, yawn!)
Ash
(On top form, enjoyed them playing there best songs, and 3 new ones)
Foo Fighters
(Very Very good, but this is when it started getting too busy and i was being pushed around a lot, but great none the less)
Coldplay
(Top notch as usual, saw them at earls court in april but this was much better and after the crowd settled down i had a really good view.)

Bands before them we couldnt be bothered to watch on sunday.
Were :-

Morcheeba
Inspiral carpets
Skin

And here's the line-up we saw for sunday.
P J Harvey
(Never heard of there music, but enjoyed watching the female singer with her very short dress drool!)
Queens of the stone age
(They were great, sound problems though )
David Gray
(Never liked his music enough to buy any, but he was so good i wanted to hear his albums afterwards)
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
(Too many people there i couldnt see much and loads of people kept pushing making it very uncomfortable, But the Chilli's were Amazing none the less )


So on saturday it was quieter, but there were 4 bands i really wanted to see and one i didnt mind seeing(The cardigans) and the other was entertaining i suppose(real big fish)

And on sunday it started getting to busy so was hard to endure while you waited for the bands to come on stage, 2 Band i really wanted to see, 1 Band that surprised me how good they are (David gray) and watched one cause i was bored (P J Harvey)

It was pretty good over those two days but too commercialised i though

Pretty much, yep.
From what I hear, the sound probs were worse in Stafford.
In Chelmsford, didn't hear any 'problems' as such, it just wasn't loud enough.
But as far as music line-up goes, yeah I think the Cardigans/Foos/Hives/Coldplay day was better.

Sunday - missed Morcheeba due to hangover
wish I'd seen David Gray instead of PJ Harvey - she was boring.
The Coral - was really looking forward to them, being from Liverpool an all, and love their two radio songs, but alas, the rest was rubbish, and they went into 'pretentious rockstars' mode kicking equipment over and making an unmusical racket
Chillis (nuff said)

Hey Ivor Life, Could i ask you what camera you used, and how much they cost to buy?

I wasted 24 pounds on disposable cameras and processing, adds up to 54 photos but only 6 came out well

[Ivor Life]

a kodak dx4330


was taking pictures without flash and slightly longer exposure,
about half of them were blurred but the ones where there was plenty of light came out just fine!

kodak are good cameras but they dont come with rechargeable batteries/charger/docking station, it annoyed me that i had to spend another £45 for the docking station!

ps digital cameras rule!!!

some more photos here

[Raz316]

That is one smart photo! nice one

I really wanna see coldplay live and especially Ash, or even better, Coldplay's (read: chris martins) cover of Shining Light

Oh yeah and seeing the foo fighters couldnt hurt either
