After
having spent the day watching mediocre bands
and a really bad main stage timing fiasco
meaning we missed Iggy Pop and then P.J.
Harvey ran into Gary's set so I had to leave
to go and see him.
The
dance tent DJ who was on previous to Gary
played the Basement Jaxx remix of ME to
appease the non-dance crowd which has now
gathered in the tent. This went down a storm
and then evenutally Numan himself came on
a little later than expected.
The
crowd were ecstatic! It was a corking gig,
really heavy, really loud and fast and the
mixture of Exile songs, old stuff (cars
and friends electric) as well as the Pure
rock tracks was outstanding!!!
Gary
looked brilliant, smiling and had a great
presence in the room. The on-going battle
between Gary and Steve came to a climax
with Gary leaping onto off Steve knocking
them both to the floor, really good entertainment.
The
gig was fantastic and the crowd well into
it.
I
lost my hearing,my voice and haven't stopped
smiling since!
