Party Season

It’s party season. Ibiza is in full swing. The festivals have started and in a few months time new bands and DJs that no one had heard of will go on to sell thousands of records. (Or whatever the kids buy these days).

First up, we’ll be looking at Glastonbury. The first bands on the main stages will start tomorrow and finish on Sunday.

Sunny, it can be one of the best places on earth. Rainy, it comes close to how I imagine hell would be.

Love it or hate it. It’s the biggest. The most Famous. And usually has the best line up. Here’s s a few photos that kind of sum up what it can be like:

Bands to look out for on the BBC’s excellent coverage of the festival are:

Friday:

Vampire Weekend

Hot Chip

Florence and the Machine
