Latitude Festival

The festival is open and we arrived in blazing sunshine for what we know is going to be a great weekend.
Had a bbq before entering the arena to watch a bit of Don Giovani at the theatre which was televised direct from the Royal Opera House. 20 minutes of which was quite enough - if we knew italian or the story it would have helped enormously. Seemed to be about some filandering Italian gentleman who was having a good time with the ladies.
We then watched a feminist group bang on about something or other and quickly moved on to some hip hop street dance crew who were at the opposite end of the spectrum - six girls shaking their booty under the direction of a male emcee. Seemed like the latter were having the most enjoyable time.
Brilliant - and the festival starts in earnest tomorrowRead more
