You don’t have to tell me twice that going to a festival is good for me. I had the best time last year at The Green Man in the Brecon Beacons, Robert Plant was awesome and despite the mud (my children thought it looked like chocolate icing) and the rain, we had a brilliant time. Going to a festival will put a buzz into your summer, and the best news is that now, thanks to Gigantic.com it may improve somebody else’s summer too. 10% of the Gigantic.com booking fee goes to Oxfam, to help overcome poverty and suffering around the world. And if you’re not sure which festival to pick, I recommend checking out Gogol Bordello at Get Loaded in the Park at Clapham Common. Check out Gigantic.com for all the listings.
Louis Walsh eat your heart out! Three Swedish Environmental Engineering students from the University of Lund have taken it upon themselves to form a boy band modelled on the likes of Westlife and Take That, but with a serious message. The Ekoboys’ euro-pop ballad “Echo in my Heart” is performed as an “eye-opener” on the state of the environment. See them on YouTube (below), download their song in mp3 format, read their lyrics, or join their Facebook group. Enjoy!
