The Fleurettes, July 2009, The Fleur in Cambridge


Well I am slightly biased as Nicholette Patch is my cousin. But they're still absolutely brilliant! If you ever get a chance to see these girls don't ever pass it up!

Pussycat Dolls, July 2009 Newmarket Racecourse


It was raining like crap. My friend and I decided to go after they sang Jai Ho...which ended up being the encore! But they didn't disappoint. I'm not their hugest fan but even I had a swell time. Those girls sure know how to put on a show, even with one girl down! They even remembered where they were and shouted NEWMARKET after almost every song!

La Roux, Bestival Sept 2009, Isle of White

Didn't get a picture because the stoopid people that organised the festival had it so she was on 10 mins after Kraftwerk the headliners in the only enclosed space with an actual capacity limit. This meant that I had to watch her on the screen outside. And the screen kept freezing. So I decided to just go to bed. But fear not, I'm going to see her in April!

Kitty, Daisy and Lewis, Bestival Sept 2009, Isle of White


Quite crap actually. I was looking forward to seeing these guys all weekend and when they came on the lead girl was in the biggest mood with the sound guy and kept having a go at him after every song. Kind of made the atmosphere a bit rubbish really.
But Lewis was fantastic!

Goldie Lookin' Chain, Sept 2009, Bestival, Isle of White


To be fair I only saw them because I was waiting for Mika to come on! They were very entertaining and got us to help them sing their single 'I need it, by any means necessary'

XO Man- Bestival, Sept 2009, Isle of White


Xo Man was very tall. He was also very charming and I'm glad I saw him because I originally went to the Jim Beam stage to see Tommy Sparks but they'd overran so I saw them instead!
I used to go to school with Neal, the bass player so said hi after! The songs were awesome and they got the audience on their backs peddling air cycles so they must be good!
