Latitude

Claire and I went to Latitude Festival in July 2014. It was hot and quite brilliant. Great music, shows, people…but I really don’t like camping!

Camping at Latitude 2014

This is from the official Latitude website:

“2014 marked the ninth edition of Latitude Festival. It was an incredible weekend encompassing a huge selection of carefully chosen musicians and an extremely varied arts programme.

Lily Allen stepped in last minute to fill the prestigious Friday headline slot on the Obelisk Arena. Fans were treated to a surprise performance by the star as she performed her latest single on The Waterfront Stage earlier on in the day, giving Latitude a taste of what was to come. Huge crowds drew to the Obelisk Arena, singing in unison to every song. Damon Albarn’s set was made increasingly memorable when a spectacular lightning storm hit the festival, making the performance even more fantastical. The set was a blend of Damon’s solo album ‘Everyday Robots’ and hits from Gorillaz and Blur, which fellow band member Graham Coxon joined the stage for ‘Tender’. American rock duo The Black Keys’ high energy set brought the stage to a close on Sunday night.”
