Rushing between the stages....


Ocassionally the photographers are thrown into a quandary, when two popular acts are playing on different stages, at roughly the same time and where the limitation of three songs only (no flash) are brought into question. Here at the Media Liason caravan we are, er, always prepared for all eventualities, so as the Ukuele Orchestra Of Great Britain take to stage 1, I'm practicising my star jumps and running on the spot for the quick dash from stage 1 to take the legions of photographers to Stage 2 to see Last Orders.


Stage 1 has been taken over by an arsenal of Ukuleles. Stage 1 You have been warned...
The orchestra are quite simply fantastic. Throwing in large dollops of humours amidst some cunningly sublime playing their set has included unique versions of such artists as David Bowie, Hawkwind, Wheatus, a hilarious version of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit and even the Sex Pistols. Plus an amazing moment where they simultaneously sang three songs at the same time including Fly Me To The Moon, I Will Survive and Love Story. What would George Formby make of it all?!
