The Big Weekend

I heart the Big Weekend. If you're unaware it's a three day free music event on the lawn of Cardiff City Hall. It also usually coincides with my birthday.

The music tends to split along taste lines over the three days. Friday is local. Saturday is worldy and quite Birkenstock. Sunday is the business. Last year saw The Young Knives (ace), Ash (meh) and Glasvegas (balls).

This Sunday 2nd August will be headlined by The Zutons, but further down the bill comes the more intriguing proposition of Camera Obscura (just confirmed for Green Man too) and Ebony Bones.

The Lightning Seeds are also playing. Look it's free alright.
