The Green Man festival is a relatively small festival in the Brecon Beacons. It’s basically Latitude with less bullshit about being a quirky boutique festival (when it’s run by the same people that run Reading and Leeds), less weekend warriors (although there are still some) and a much better line-up. I went down to this immensely picturesque part of Wales to watch some music, a few talks and some comedy. Oh, and see a huge green man be burned to the ground. WOO!

THE VIRGINS
“Hey Hey Girl”
Warner
The charming thing about the Virgins, or at least the song “Rich Girls” was they were a shitty guitar band trying to play R & B but failing in a dumb and glorious fashion. Then they re-recorded that song with some big shot producer who actually made them sound professional and ruined their schtick, which made them pretty rubbish. This is another song by them, which may have been good at some point, but now definitely isn’t. Basically if they hire me as their manager / guru I will make them shitty and glorious once more.
