Get Loaded in the Park

[Platty]

Hello's...I have just got back from Get Loaded in the park on Clapham Common. Had such a good day which involved babyshambles and lots of pipettes..

Anyway yeah did anyone else go? Was such a good festival and only £30!

Acts i saw were:

Merla
Comedy store (3 comedians, pretty damn funny)
Kid Harpoon
Misty's Big Adventure
The Chalets
The Pipettes
Bez (DJ set)
The Young Knives
Buzzcocks
Goldie (DJ set)
Graham Coxon
Guillemots
Babyshambles

As you know im a big fan of Mr Doherty and he and the babyshambles were superb and they also played my favourite Libertines song - What Katie Did... was soooo good.

Other highlights were the pipettes, they were superb! i also managed to meet them and got my photo taken with 2 of them...it hasnt come out too well cos my mate seems to not know how to work my phone, but ill post it anyway.

I love them all!! Although Rose does look a hell of a lot like my ex girlfriend Lauren which is worrying!

Anyway I had a really good day :)

Looks pretty good, wouldn't have minded going if university hadn't have got in the way. In the second photo does she know you're there, just looks like you've taken her by surprise and sneakily nabbed a photo.

ah man, I love the pipettes. is their album out?

also: how awesome is Graham Coxon live? that guy is insanely good. When I saw him he was pulling off solo's while rolling about on the floor and jumping around like a mentalist.

[Platty]

Yeah the album has been out for a while. Go buy it now!!

Here are a couple of pipette vids that I filmed on my phone:

As for Graham Coxon he is awesome, although he hasnt got the strongest voice and could have done with his mc turned up a bit. But all the classics were superb like You & I and Freakin' Out!

Heh, yeah got to love Graham Coxon live. Saw him a few months ago and he did a sort of failed backflip whilst doing a solo and yet carried on. He was lucky he didn't do himself a mischief.

hehe yeah that sounds about right. quality showman though. I love seeing those kinda guys who've been playing live for years and years. it really makes an impact on the performance.

Damn in one day my video on youtube of the Babyshambles performing what katie did from the festival is getting so much attention:

It's not even great quality but there seems to be crazier pete doherty fans out there than me.

I declare myself a hero. :heh:
