Bendy buses, Marble Arch, Libby in an uncomfortable VW Touran boot seat for hours. Then we actually park UNDER Hyde Park. I didn't actually expect that. Nor did I expect to get out of the car and walk a few yards before we were at the gates. Are we sure it was Phil Daniels that was there and not Paul Daniels?
Blur's final choon of the night. The Universal. Beautiful performance, atmosphere, weather. Then a 30 minute trudge through a sea of beer bottles, a walk down Park Lane to an underground car park with my feet killing me! I'd do it again tomorrow though! Wonderful weekend. I'm only just absorbing what I saw last night as I upload these videos!

Damon Albarn jokes that now Murray's out of Wimbledon, blur have today become the 'only official sponsor of Fred Perry'. Followed by a small segment of Bad Head, before I got a bad arm from holding aloft my camera!
