T In The Park? DONE! What a wewekend we had! We were treated like kings by everyone all weekend and the show couldn't possibly have gone any better! I spent Friday and Saturday with my old pal Murphy and my former manager drinking beer in the hospitality section while Tommy lit the Media Village on fire! I got to see a bit of Franz Ferdinand, all of my mates band Broken Records, a wee flick of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's and some Kings of Leon. I must confess however that I didn't go and see that many more bands because sitting on the grass in the sun was just way too much fun if you compare it to fighting your way through crowds of ned/chavs.
By the time it got around to Sunday and we were given our Artist Village passes I wasn't going anywhere. I had to spend my time figuring out who I could spot, what I could get for free and how much lavish food I could get in ma belly....
