Hello, all. I know I haven't posted anything in a long, loong time, but I wanted to say thank you for the great moments I had on the festival. I did not talk to anyone because, well...I'm a little (very) shy. But I was right behind one group and it was amazing! The whole experience was just amazing. And the wait was more bearable. :wink2:

 

I hope next time I'll have the courage to actually talk to some of you. :blush-anim-cl:

The problem with Tindersticks was not the quality of the music (I thought they actually did a good job, if we think they spent more time trying to keep their instruments dry than playing :roftl:) but they were DEFINITELY not the band for that festival, and especially for that day. :dunno: I have no idea why the heck they were there, if the organization wanted to include them in the festival, they should have played the previous day, with Skunk Anansie and Moby as headliners. :boxed:

question for people who were in Compiegne and in Portugal: was this singer/band (tindersticks) worse than the last "singer" in France :teehee:? I thought there could not be anything worse :aah: Poor guy but it's the truth, he deserved to be booed!

I was curious so I checked this Tindersticks..I must say I quite like this music...but maybe not for the situation you were in...in the need of jumping out of your skin to the moment you were waiting for..hungry, wet, cold, in pain etc.... :original: but for a quiet evening, to relax...it's ok...mesmerizing...

Was he saying something about the group pic?:blink:

 

Can I just say that the highlight of this gig was meeting all the framazing Portuguese and Spanish fans, you know who you are:wub2:

 

And my American friends of course ya'll:mf_rosetinted:

 

You have to come back for a more relaxed gig and you'll like us more! :aah:

 

When we were posing with Mika, if you check the pic, there were more people on the right trying to get in the pic (for example Liliana and her boyfriend), but it was impossible. :huh:

Now that I think of it, I'm surprised I managed to appear! :roftl: Feiticeiro tried to move just a tiny bit for me to go there (obrigada!) but it was mad! Mika must have been sooooooo squished there in the middle! :aah:

I moved away. It was no use. I didn't even tried to join to the group pic, since I only had a place near the floor, so I wouldn't appear anyway.

Now that I'm thinking I could ruin all the photographs, If I had jumped to the front of each camera. :roftl:

Honestly I can't say if they were good or bad, because I don't remember their music.

I know that in those conditions and with those artists, Tindersticks didn't fit at all. I was in pain, wet and I had a group of very tall people in front of me. So I just saw their backs and nothing else. I couldn't do anything besides feeling tortured! :boxed:
