Live Earth

We have a great opportunity today to really achieve something positive. We can look back in years to come and say this was the day where we made a start; this was our first step to Make Geldof History.....

Do you think she'd have an article on the Comment page of a national broadsheet if she didn't?

Get yer twee on!

there's a new music taking over this country and it's called indie"

Obviously I'm not one to ignore the voice of The Kids. So I head over to Indietracks, quite possibly 'the coolest festival - ever!'

Suitably attired in, quite possibly 'the coolest t-shirt to attend a indie pop festival - ever!'

 

 

 

 

I arrive here:

 

 

 

(totally gratuitous photograph, solely included to show off the fact my phone can upload gps data to google earth)

Which is where indietracks starts to differ slightly from other festivals. No traipsing across muddy fields with a wheelbarrow here; you travel from the carpark, to the festival site, by steam train.

 

 

I upgrade to the 1st class compartment, of course.....

 

 

All of which is the brainchild of Stuart, a guy who likes trains, and likes twee. Who went to a few club nights, met some people, and decided "hey, let's do the show right here": at the Midland Railway, Butterley.

Which means the main stage is, quite literally, a shed.

 

But the second stage is rather more attactively situated in the railymen's chapel

 

 

Here playing host to the rather excellent Chiara L's. Who are not in the least bit twee. And, if I were still working on a label, would now have a record deal.

 

So, catering by Marge and Beryl at the station buffet bar. A total crowd of about 200 - of the twee-est indie wonks you'd find outside of a Sarah Records fan club. 40 of the most winsomely fey glock botherers to ever form bands. And the regular weekend crowd of trainspotters and families who are there at the railway museum anyway.

And it's brilliant.
