Last nite...

...I went to the first night of the Wireless Festival. The Strokes were OK, although I still think they're the most overrated band since Oasis, and I could have done without ever hearing their cover of 'Walk on The Wild Side'. Belle and Sebastian's support set was brilliant though, especially the extended glam-stomp intro to 'White Collar Boy'. My favourite Glaswegian band*, a beautiful sunset, a picnic courtesy of my friend Jen (bagels! grapes! soft cheese! chorizo!! Couldn't have been further from a Glastonbury diet if we'd tried) and the fact that it was all free made it a pretty ace way to spend a Wednesday night.

10. It was the fucking Hyde Park!


* My top five glaswegian bands in order: B&S, Teenage Fanclub, Camera Obscura, Franz, Bis. Thanks for asking. No room for Travis, The Supernaturals, David Sneddon, or Darius this time. Or for Scrooge McDuck despite the theme tune to Duck Tales being brilliant.
