This week it was time for our annual festival round-up, reliving some of the best memories and singalongs from the festival season. Looking back on some of the highlights of Village Green and Latitude in July (interviews and photos of which are still available here on the Phoenix FM website), Essex Road Fest, as well as Reading in August and Bestival earlier in September.
Who annoyed festival organisers when their set overran? Who seemingly vanished in a puff of smoke? Who came on stage wearing a drum machine (that’s right, wearing)? Who did an impromptu meet-and-greet with fans straight after coming off stage? And who was marking 20 years since their first festival appearance by playing there again? Click above to listen back to the show and all will be revealed!
Of course, it wouldn’t be the Curveballs festival special without the annual A-Z of festival t-shirts. What amusing pun can be found on this lad’s shirt? Have a listen to the show to find out and hear this year’s full slogan countdown!
