The Twelfth Night

Last weekend I went all the way to Chichester to see Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. The main reason for going was that Patrick Stewart was playing the character of Malvolio. Needless to say, he was quite brilliant! So were all the other actors, it was a very rounded cast overall. For more details see here. I recommend it highly, very pleased to have gone!

Muddy Glastonbury...

Yes it was unbelievably muddy! The photos don't do it justice!


175,000 people attended so you can imagine there were quite a few tents.


I had to find mine by going to the fourth red flag on the right and looking for the Fosters shelter!

The Pyramid tent was the big one where Maximo Park, The Killers, the Arctic Monkeys and Kasabian played.


And here is the Jazz World tent and you can see Medieval Punditz on the stage. They were the best act I think and attracted a very large crowd! The other stages were too big.


After all that I was happy to go home, take a bath and watch the Manic Street Preachers on digital tv in my lovely warm house :)

I don't think I'd really want to go again but I'm glad I found out what it was all about after all these years of wanting to go. The whole thing started when Pulp headlined Glastonbury in 1995 when I first started liking Brit music.
