an11381's review of V Festival

“V was my first festival and it was sooooo good, best...”

★★★★★

written by an11381 on 21/08/2007

Good Points
The music was amazing, atmosphere was great, audience response/involvement was brilliant. EVERY band I saw lived up to expectations (except the wombats... but their just starting up so I'll let them off, plus Kill the Director made up for the rest of the set!). Really good choice of food. Had classic films (the good type!) on after the music if you were buzzing too much to sleep after the exhilarating experience of just having seen your favourite bands.

Bad Points
Loos smelt a bit.... not much though.... Fell over on the way out to the car park at the end of the weekend.... Struggling to make any bad points!

General Comments
V was my first festival and it was sooooo good, best time of my life (so far!)

Sounds like Chelmsford was the better crowd which meant the bands/artists committed more (going on reviews of the two different sites - I obviously wasn't at both!). The better the audience are the better the band, so when you watch a gig remember WOOP as loud as you can!

Wicked sweet time!

Seriously, if you're considering/doubting whether or not to go to your first festival, DO IT! Chances are you'll love it, but if you don't, you will have seen some great bands and you'll know to stick to gigs in the future.

The baby wipe is King of the Festival!

Great review, I didn't go this year (gutted!) but you are so right about baby wipes!!! They rule when it comes to festivals. So who was the best band you saw then?

It'd be hard to say who was the best to be honest with you, there were a group who stood out completely for me. The killers (obviously!), Kasabian (who surprised me), P!nk was very entertaining and the audience was loving it, Unklejam deserved a longer set (they only had 30minutes but it was really memorable!), oh and the editors they were very good.... and Mark Ronson.... see? I can't do it! I can't narrow it down!
<br/>The Foo fighters were good, but they aren't my cup of tea, and I don't really know any of their songs so couldn't join in at all.
<br/>
<br/>And probably most impressive (for me) was a 'band' called Rodrigo y Gabriela, they are two mexican acoustic guitarist, just them on stage but my my what a noise! They were probably the surprise of the weekend. And they made you body shake (especially when you were as close to the speakers as I was!). I'd only gone to them because my friend's dad likes them!
<br/>
<br/>For me there was only one disappointment of the weekend and that was in the form of The Wombats, but they made up for it with Kill the Director (which they opened with....) which was amazing live, shame about the rest of the set though.
