i'll be there wearing my Newborn long-sleeved t-shirt so come up and say hi.

you know this show is free, yeah?

looks like they are playing an hour show as the HSB set times have been announced:

Elbow
Star Stage
4:50PM-5:50PM

they are the last act of the day on that stage.

Anyone out there making the commute there from the East Bay via public transport?

My workmate Nick will be there, he's not (yet) a fan, so be sure to go up to him and persuade him.

You can't miss him, he looks like a skinny hippy...

...oh wait..

Great concert, bit short of course, but hey, it was free. I got a little overexcited and took way too many pictures, soI just joined this place to share them.

I wanted to just post a link to the album, but I guess new users aren't allowed to spam links right away. Is there a mod around that can change this so I can post a link to the album/slideshow instead? Cheers!

LOVE that last one!

There's no issues with any members posting links as far as I am aware (thought what do I know)

Can you send me a PM explaining what issues you are having?

Thanks guys! I was definitely very close to the front and I brought the lens I usually use for birding. I hope I didn't scare them Smile

Hooray for free festivals with no photography policy...

Birding eh?

Guy will be impressed! Thumbs Up!
