It's hot...finally the summer has arrived here on the outskirts of sunny Sheffield, although I suspect it won't last.

Anyway it's safe to say I just had a very hectic weekend. It began on Friday morning when I drove down to the big smoke to watch the mighty ACDC at Wembley Stadium. This was my third time seeing the Antipodean maestros (apart from Brian), the first being in 1991 at the Monsters Of Rock festival @ Castle Donnington and I got to say they blew me away. Me and my mate Al managed to get right into the pit and the action down the front was class, nothing beats being surrounded by 1000s & 1000s of people completely losing it. As for the band well...for a bunch of old guys they completely smashed it up.

We were just to the left of the walkway at the front!



Next was a *very* early Saturday morning drive over to Glastonbury to see Springsteen and checkout the rest of the festival. Considering how much new music was on at Glastonbury, apart from the immense Gaslight Anthem, I managed to see only the old pros...Status Quo (Rockin All Over The World), Madness (Ultimate party band), Tom Jones (!) & Spinal Tap (Very funny & Very Sharp). The highlight was easily The Boss though, he managed to play for 2hr40 without ever turning it into a greatest hits set. The final hour was one of the most barnstorming endings to a gig I've ever seen. He destroyed Glastonbury.
