Charlotte on festivals
WHAT WAS YOUR
FIRST FESTIVAL
APPEARANCE?
"V97 and it was
one of the first
gigs I ever played
with Ash and I'd
left Nightnurse
the week before.
We did the warm-ups and then did
this festival to
20,000 people and it was the
first I'd ever been to. I was dazed
and confused. We did Reading,
too, and that was special because
we played before Page and Plant
and we're big Led Zep fans. We
stayed the whole weekend."
IS THERE ANYBODY YOU'RE REALLY
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING?
"I'd love to see the Happy
Mondays, just to see if they are
anygood or not. I'd like to check
out the Manics."
DO YOU THINK
FESTIVALS ARE BETTER
THAN NORMAL GIGS?
"Nah, well it's a
really different thing.
I prefer doing smaller
gigs, because at
festivals you're
playing at five in
the afternoon and
you can't really get
into it. Festivals are
just a good excuse to have a right
royal piss-up."
ARE YOU CAMPING THIS YEAR OR
POSHING IT UP IN A HOTEL OR BUS?
"I hope I'll be camping at
Glastonbury. Are there hotels?
I don't know. We'll be wallowing
in the mud."
WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
ACCESSORY FOR THE FESTIVAL-GOER?
"A pair of wellington boots. And,
of course, plenty of booze."
