Sounds like a good time to me.
I'll check 'em out when I get home and see if I like it, then figure out who's on at the same time and make a decision.
I'm proper pumped about going to Leeds now!!

So I went to Leeds Festival yesterday... Had a great time. Not been since 2009 and I'm gutted I didn't go for the full weekend (mostly because Frank Turner played two sets on the Friday and I adore him).
I got there in time to see Title Fight on the Lock Up stage and I've got to say, I was massively underwhelmed. They have some decent recorded material but live they are utterly terrible. It's nothing to do with the band as a unit, they were tight and energetic, but the sound was really bad and for a band with two vocalists I was impressed by how little talent either man had at using their voices. Really bad start to the day.
After that Teenage Bottle Rocket entertained me thoroughly with a set of incredibly similar, but bloody fun, songs. I'd never heard of them before, but I've been assured that they are partially responsible for the pop-punk revolution in the early to mid-nineties so I have them to thank for bands like The Offspring and Green Day. They're definitely as fun live.
I was on my way to being very drunk by this point (yes, already) and letlive. ripped me a new one by being a stunning and insane cacophony of brilliance. The lead singer might actually be clinical nutso though. He flung himself all over the shop, including into the drum kit... Twice.
Anyway, work is calling so I'll continue this account of my epic day in a field later...![]()
