I Like Music Investigates: Festivals for The Bands, DJ's and Musicians
Wobbly missions indeed. The next question we asked opened the flood gates to many an amusing tale.
Everyone has a collection of favourite festival moments…but what about those who get to go backstage (usually a slightly less muddy field)…I Like Music delved into the hidden depths of the merky, hazy festival past when we asked…What has been your maddest, strangest or best festival moment?
Merka: Definitely at Bloom. Not last year but the year before. It was in a place called the Llama Tree Gardens and it was basically the perfect festival. I couldn't fault it in any way. Every single person I met was friendly, lovely, funny, excited. Everything you should be at a festival. I really enjoyed my set, it went down really well. It was amazing in a beautiful tent, there were peacocks running around and a little Victorian disco!
Jack Savoretti: We just came back from SXSW. That was incredible. It was tough because it was hard work. The whole climate is really intense, really intimidating. There is so much music. So many amazing musicians, a lot of songs, a lot of song writers, a lot of goodness. It can be a bit intimidating. You are amongst people that take what they do really seriosuly. The kind of talent and quality of music is overwhelming.
