Sonisphere

Wow my ears are only just getting back to normal.
A whole host of bands at my first festival where I've camped at.
It was really tiring trying to sleep on a slope, in a 20 quid tent, surrounded by thousands of people.

musically highlights include

Iron Maiden (headliners, my first time seeing them, very good, I knew the word for fear of the dark)
Rammstein (brilliant, fire and noise, got right to the front for them)
Alice Cooper (not so good, not sure why didn't quite get the crowd going)
Iggy & The Stooges (same although I was a long way back)
Papa Roach (for the kids)
Good Charlotte (for the kids as well)
Anthrax (great stuff, I didn't really
Placebo (OK bit weird in daylight and wearing white suits)
Henry Rollins (great again keep up the fight)
Skunk Anansie (really good set, Skin owns the crowd, I got a bit sun burnt!)
Apocalyptica (OK odd 4 guys with cellos, everyone else thought they were the nuts)
Mötley Crue (WTF the crowd went wild)
Slayer (Roar! mighty stuff)
Corey Taylor (unlucky missed most of it but the rest was good)
Pendulum (Really, Really good didn't think I was going to like it but boy did I bounce)
Renegades (Feeder really really late at night, but tired and happy)
Terrorvision (Highlight they still got it and I nearly lost my voice)
Therapy? (Once they got the electrics to work. One of the highlights as they played the whole troublegum album)
Gary Numan (solid stuff)
Europe (yeap final countdown they did other stuff but couldn't hear for the crowd chanting for final countdown!)

plus a load of others which I can only vaguely remember going to. I was all a bit of a blur in the end. That might have something to do with sharing a camp site with a bunch of South Africans, boy can they drink!

Flat Update

They changed the sign (a sign of desperation?)

"BUY MY 1 BED FLAT
NO MORTGAGE NEEDED
£10,000+£268a week BUYS IT.
WEST FERRY RD, E14

07xxxxxx"

Well that'll be tricky to beat. Althouhg I wouldn't fancy getting into all sorts of legal oddities being either half of that sort of an arrangement.
