Kate Rusby, Stage 1, 6.30pm


Kate Rusby took to stage 1 at 6.30pm, having spent two successful hours this afternoon in the Mojo tent as the crowds snaked around the arena for a glimpse of one of the most popular artists on this years bill.
Playing songs spanning her rich back catalogue alongside new material from her forthcoming Akward Annie, Kate was greeted with a rapturous reception. Always popular at Cambridge, Kates appearance is like catching up with an old friend. The Romanian gypsy brass band Fanfaire Ciocarlia have just taken the stage, ready to inject some funk into Saturday night on stage 1, a world away from playing weddings and funerals in northwest Romania. Hopefully we shall also here their fantastic cover of .Born To Wild that was featured in the Borat movie. You cant be a bit of parping.
...and, arguably, the best song title of the weekend: Frogs Legs and Dragons Teeth. Are Bellowhead gonna take that particular award?

Brilliant, Kate was on her top form and that's a pretty high place to be.
