I'm taking a punt here, Annasfield, but I'm reckoning that Brendan may have considered it to have seemed absolutely splendid in theory.

Mind, he's left the outcome open.

Outcome? Open? Tequila? Guinness?

Sounds absolutely spilled, in fact.

Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

Pop/rock music based comedy quiz? YES!

Sardonic/irreverent presenter? YES!

Comedic/musicalish team captains? YES!

Weekly guests from the pop/rock mileue (spelled correctly? Who knows. It's not like they have Thom Yorke on there). YES!


Any how it has all of the above and it should be a programme I'd enjoy, but I'd rather take the cordless drill I have in my meter cupboard to my right knee than watch it.

    • I spoke to a sound engineer at Piermont and he mentioned the software they use which tries to absorb the sound into the landscape
    • I think we're probably closest - about 50m from one of the tents - and to be honest it's not that bad. The bass is making the windows vibrate but it's not 'noisy' I've always said the loud music is the least of the issues to me. It's the construction for two weeks before / one week after, the imposing steel wall, the trodden in non-decomposing litter (fag butts, cable ties, vapes, bottle tops, ring pulls) which will cover the entire site forever, the compaction & damage to the grass which takes months to recover, the impact on birds, bats & wildlife of 24/7 lights, the anti social behaviour of so many attendees (p***ing on the streets and in the bushes) and this year the blatant extending of the site footprint, despite previously giving the reason they can't move it is because it's been designed for that location. And hopefully everyone can see this for what it really is - an attempt to win over the local community and set a precedent for four festival days, so that they have a stronger argument when they put in an application for six days again next year.  Southwark state that the money from Gala goes directly to supporting their Events dept, who support "up to 100 free events every year". So what are these free events, and why do we need another? 
    • Found now. All safe.   Found now!
    • We are on Friern Road and can not  hear Gala tonight, each year it depends on direction of wind, but we can hear Kneecap who are playing in Brockwell tonight....
