The first two days of the festival had got bad press (poor organisation on first day with hours waiting in beer queues and the second day marred by Lauryn Hill turning up very late – who’d have guessed? – and playing a very short set to disgruntled, booing punters) and this, the third day, was predicted thunderstorms and heavy rain. But instead today we were blessed with wonderful weather, good organisation, happy crowds, and fantastic music – a perfect festival day.
The punters were perhaps slow in coming – I’m sure the forbidding weather forecasts were to blame – and the first bands to played to a sparse but enthusiastic crowd.
The festival had a rough start but today was glorious and I hope organisers live up to their word when they say they will return again next year.
