One thought on “Countdown to Benicassim 2009

  1. I like lists. Indeed I do.

    I’ve heard of very few of those, but if I was going to said festival, I would be most excited about seeing Lykke Li. She’s cool, bro. Well, I think so. Peaches is ker-aaaazy, The Killers are pretty good, hmm yeah. Heard of a few others but yes. Have you heard of many of them Simon? I’m sure you’ll have an excellent time.

    By the way, I just thought, that one day, you need to photograph Naturally 7. Unrelated to the topic, but I thought of it and thought I’d share before I forgot. So yes. You do. They’re flipping incredible.
