In-Tents Questioning, Music News

Tom Hall (on the left in the pic) is a hairdresser from Hertfordshire. But when he’s not messing with tresses, he likes a bit of festival action. This is his view of the Chelmsford leg of V 2007.
1. Kindly tell us your name, age and where you’re from. Now.
Tom Hall, 25, from St Albans in Hertfordshire.
2. Which festival have you recently attended?
The V Festival in Chelmsford.
3. Have you attended this festival before? If yes, how does this year compare?
No.
4. Which act gave the best performance, and why?

The acts I would choose were headlining already!
6. Did your opinion of any acts change radically as a result of their performance?
Babyshambles.
7. Nicest surprise / biggest disappointment (music-related or otherwise)?

8. What was the best heckle you heard?
“That’s not Kate Nash, He’s got a beard!”
9. Any high-quality onstage banter you feel deserves highlighting?
Lily Allen… she should do stand up.

There weren’t any really?

A pillow.
14. Anything you wish you’d left behind?
Not really.

Crowd / audience: 10/10 - Brilliant atmosphere all weekend.
Food and drink value for money: 5/10
16. Finally – anything else you’d like to mention?
You’re not even midget!
