purple radio live debut

my first ever live internet radio show - arrrrgggghhhhh. warming up for mr black, i do a couple of hours from 8-10pm. All good fun and seemed to go down okay. tracklist and download.

wayne's stag do

a weekend in deepest northwest wales. I head up on Friday morning and spend much of the afternoon on the beach. a chilled evening beach barbeque is enjoyed by all until the rain finally forces us inside.

saturday is a bit of a stroll around the coast for some ales in the local. then its back to the hut for more... erm.. ales.

a steady drive back today with a slightly delicate head.

the big chill 08 - day 3

final day at the festi... and we must see sir norman jay as we completely failed last year. so we're into the site in plenty of time and sir norman does not disappoint - a varied selection of old stuff for the first hour, then he gets us all dancing with some up to date sounds. finishing with pjanoo from eric prydz!

its then back to the campsite for some chilling and food.

back into the site for the final evening and we catch a bit of the buzzcocks, manage to avoid the dubstep in the club tent, and find ourselves ordering food with the cheery tones of leonard cohen at the main stage - cheer up mate!

refueled we head back to the rizla arena for the closing set by greg wilson - excellent.

The Big Chill 08 - Day 2

another great day spent in and out of the festi. cristian pommers drum lesson, tom middleton, trentmoller and of course more greg wilson!

The Big Chill 08 - Day 1

first proper day at the big chill and we awake after a good night's sleep. its rained overnight and I think our tent us on its last legs. al and nes head off to the body and sould arena in the morning for some massage treatments whilst the boys just hang out at the campsite. once the girls return all relaxed, lee mixes up some fine food. we have a lazy early afternoon whilst waiting for brother ian to arrive.

Once we're all settled we head into the festival proper with a few 'must sees' on the list. a good mooch around and we find ourselves dancing at the rizla arena to greg wilson - great stuff as expected. We then head over to the main stage to catch theivery corporation who are amazing! I take a quick detour to catch a bit of the orb bashing out a few classics... but theivery are worth returning to.
