In a parallel world there are festivals that are going on that are far more interesting than the existing ones. So using an example Wurzel just sent me: Glasnostbury – Michael Eavis reads aloud declassified information on Soviet atrocities, accompanied by Marcus Mumford on banjo. Any more? |

Platitude - 'nuff said The Big Chill - for groups of 30 an 40 somethings who kill one of their number on the first evening then spend the rest of the time getting maudlin in the bar about missing them and copping off with one another for grief shags. Trunk - Pete Doherty is convinced to play a guerilla gig in a large packing case, which is quickly locked and thrown in a nearby lake. The End of the Spode - lots of people gather in a field and smash up posh china. Yes, yes, it has been one of those weeks... |

Lassitude - everyone lounges around having a kip in their tent instead of turning up to see half-arsed mini-sets by J Mascis and the Mary Chain that drift off into nothing V - all bands reveal themselves to be lizards and enslave the audience. Featuring the David Icke Tent in which a man in a turquoise tracksuit sits smugly on stage saying "See? See? I told you". Catering by Rats-r-Us. |
