Third festival: Green Man, done.

So, I have finally recovered from my last huge festival of the summer, Green Man.

Easily my favourite of all the festivals, not only because they asked me to compere the main stage, and host the radio’s breakfast show every morning… It’s the vibe. It reminds me a lot of Bestival in the early days – not fancy dress and not as silly, but a pure, non-commercial fun-filled festival.

The people that run it (Fiona, Ben and Nush) are amazingly lovely, and run a very tight ship. The festival sold out this year, and it’s a credit to those three, as the festival is something they all really love working on, and you can tell with the production of it all.

I was there, compering and hosting the breakfast show, but also running Green Man Radio with @paulnoble for @popupradio. It was genius, we had loads of people in and it was all great fun. Although, weirdly, none of that is my highlight of the weekend.

My highlight of the weekend was Friday evening, after getting The 2 Bears and Horse Meat Disco in to do a show on Green Man Radio, and being asked to dance for The 2 Bears on stage, in a bear costume. The most amazing, yet humiliating experience of the weekend. LOVED IT.

Anyway, my breakfast shows are now online on mixcloud here. I’ve had lots of fun, photos of me on the main stage are coming to me soon. I can’t wait to see them.

The next festival is a street party in Shoreditch this Sunday called Bookstock. Held by the people that run The Book Club, when they ran a street party for the royal wedding, it was the second largest in London! See you there, I’l be hosting the main stage.
