Because I stupidly forgot my ear plugs.
See!? They were here, all the time, hiding on the desk in the hall. *pout*
I know, I know, they give away foam earplugs, but I just hate those things, so I had to position myself way away from the stage…
Still, Beth Gibbons won the festival. She’s so awesome. And the musicians she had brought were so good. It was just perfection.
(Except that everybody took their phones out and started filming when she did Glory Box.)
I was really impressed by ganavya, who’s somebody I hadn’t heard before. I’m buying all her albums.
And jasmine.4.t was a lot of fun, so I’m going to sample her albums… And while most of the artists did some kind of Palestine appeal (ganavya had us singing a Palestine lullaby, for instance), she was the only one that led the crowd in a “free free Palestine” chant. Props!
