Big Chill 2007
Just got back to Illwood Heights after 3 days of debauchery at the Big Chill festival in the middle of Herefordshire, and damn, do I feel ruined.
Black Grass rocked the SoCo Fat Tuesdays stage for two packed hours on the Saturday night, with Mex tearing up the rulebooks once more and playing the funkiest eclectic set you’re ever likely to hear in the middle of nowhere, while Koaste got drunk on stage and got retarded as usual. Big shouts to Ty and Skitz for taking time out to come and party with the Btown contingent!
It was a pretty crazy festival with fuck loads of different genres of music, and although I wasn’t expecting it, The Blockheads absolutely killed it for me. Dropping all their classics, from Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick to Sex & Drugs & Rock’n’Roll, it was dope as fuck.
Big shouts out to the various bar people (you know who you are) that meant that most of the crew didn’t have to pay for a drink all weekend. We hit that hard, believe. Your kindness was much appreciated!
