V Festival















V Festival: 4 April at Melbourne
Upon arriving at Melbourne there were a few adverts about for V Festival - a one day event, with tickets left. I had a look at who was playing and dragged Paul to Ticketmaster where we got two tickets for only 70pounds each - which is very cheap for a great day out! We saw full sets of Duffy (good voice but all the songs are very similar); Elbow (fantastic); Razorlight (surprisingly brilliant); Kaiser Chiefs (great of course) and the Killers (again, great of course). We also saw a few songs from Snow Patrol, Madness, The Kills and The Human League between stages. There were about 20 000 people at this festival which meant that it was not at full capacity and there was loads of room - so for most of the bands we got right near the front. Great day out. What an unexpected bonus!

Great pictures of the show! I find the same thing with Duffy (1) album came about almost the exact time as Winehouse and (2) very similar inflection and voice for every song.

Thanks for sharing!
