Diary of T in The Park 2008 - Saturday night

By Lorraine Waddell on Jul 15, 08 02:11 PM in

Well after speaking to Ben from Biffy Clyro I made my way to the main stage to see them.

They blasted on stage in matching red trousers and bare chests for their rousing set which did not disappoint except for the absence of my favourite song, Folding Stars.

Next up was The Kooks who I felt had great chemistry with the crowd especially the thousands at the front of the stage who they got to sit down.

Glad I wasn't there right enough because the amount of people I saw gobbing on the floor did not make me want to sit down!

Best interactive crowd song was, unexpectedly, new single, Shine On which proved to be a popular sing-a-long.

Then The Fratellis who, along with The Biff, made me truly proud to be Scottish. It was refreshing to have some excellent homegrown talent high up the bill at the fest.

The ever-popular Chelsea Dagger went down a massive treat with the whole place bouncing around to the anthem.

Sadly this was the last for 2008's T in The Park for me as I had to run an injured friend home although once home I was totally shattered.

What a great weekend though?! Here's to next year!

Gavin McInally - Festival veteran Gavin McInally will chalk up his 34th festival, and eighth T In The Park over the weekend, in search of a crushing bass line and some growling vocals amongst the indie flood at Balado. The Paisley Daily Express digital scribe is looking forward to the triumphant return of Raging Against The Machine, record breaking Biffy Clyro, checking out the hotly-tipped new Relentless Stage and, embarrassingly, Counting Crows… Not to mention the obligatory pint.
