Sunday 24th August – Concur play Leeds Fest

Another early 9am start. Surprisingly we all seem to feel pretty good, except Tim who lost the plot on the guest bar dance floor last night. From what I can see of the curled up red sweaty mess on the tent floor he looks pretty rough.

We head to the Introducing stage and emotionally hook up with Alan and Katy from the BBC Raw Talent team who helped get us here. We sort out the tech stuff and everything seems to be pretty good. Tim eventually turns up and we’re ready to go. An amazing weekend is pretty complete when we have another really good gig. The crowd are just brilliant and it’s one of the biggest buzzes ever!

Finally we can relax proper. We do various interviews and photo shoots for the BBC.before chilling out backstage. After checking out Los Campesinos! and Foals we head back to the Introducing stage to do one final interview with the Raw Talent guys. Alan Raw’s on top form and I recommend having a listen to the interview we did with him. We’re not normally on such good form when a mic is put in front of us.

From then on it all gets a bit hazy. We get drunk, dance a bit and even end up in the silent disco before turning it in. All in all it’s been wonderful. Happy days to be in I Concur.
