Hi all, long time lurker who recently moved to London from out in the middle of nowhere, so I'm playing a lot more live poker than I used to. Figured I would start up a journey thread so I don't just keep spamming the same couple of people on whatsapp with HHs saying "God I suck", now you guys can see it too!

About me - I'm a 23yo guy who lives near Stratford as of a couple of weeks ago. My work involves some pretty weird shifts, which means that I've had a fair amount of freetime while other people are at normal 9-5 jobs, and this time seems to be more frequently ending up in either Aspers or Empire. So while I wouldn't say I'm becoming a "reg" yet (I think. I played 13 sessions last month, could be getting close!), some players are starting to recognise me as that-guy-who-looks-a-bit-like-Tom-Dwan-and-seems-to-spew-off-money-alot.

How's it going - I finally started tracking my results at the start of May, mainly to help calm down my spewy tendencies when stuck. The first month went well, however rather than being due to steady profits and solid strategy, it was more from a 1000BB session which took me from flat to a very nice month. Because who wants to start a journey thread when they are downswinging...

Thread stuff - I'll hopefully update this after every session I play, with interesting hands, how much I spewed, all the usual stuff you'd expect here. Acidhauss's PGC thread is one of the few that I check constantly, and while this one will not be anywhere near that quality, I'll hopefully pick up some things from it that I can incorporate into my writing!

If people enjoy it / are reading this, then great! If they don't, it can't hurt to have somewhere to track HHs and session updates for looking back over anyway! Next session looks like being Wednesday afternoon, so hopefully the new journey thread brings rungood, rather than having to start with a depressing update

First session of the thread completed!

Game: Empire 1/2
Duration: 5hours
In for: £600
Out for: £790

Happy enough to start off with a win! Session followed an all-too-familiar pattern recently, with me getting stuck a buyin early (buying in for £300), then gradually getting myself unstuck.
The getting stuck part came in the form of two hands. First one getting it in against a flush draw which hit for ~£100, meh. Second one having the easiest bet-fold on the river in the history of the world ever... then still bet-calling it off because I'm a fish and I had 5 cards in a row.

The grind back didn't really have any big, allin hands, was fairly steady £50/£100 pots at a time, nothing hugely exciting other than valuebetting top pairs etc...

One hand where I was slightly confused on the best route to take is below, feedback would be welcome:

Hero is SB with Jc Js

Folded to button (unknown guy, £300 deep eff), raises to 8, hero 3bets to 25, just button calls.

Flop 678r (pot 52)

Hero checks (?) , button bets 20, hero calls

Turn 2r (pot 92)

Hero checks, button bets 55, hero calls

River Tx (pot 202)

Hero checks, button bets 115, hero folds

Main question here is whether to c-bet or not. In game I decided against it, as it sucks to get raised here when villain could be raising 98/97s type hands, along with his 2prs/sets/straights. Looking back now I think I'm still fine with no cbet so that I don't just have check-fold type hands here? But open to suggestions because


Other random things from the session:
Brag: Got a rake free card (win a hand with 56suited. Raised the button, the blinds fold, easy game.)
Beat: I won it 30mins before the end of the session
Variance: About £6 saved in rake.

Also managed to make myself table change for the first time in ages. The initial game turned pretty reg-gy, moved across to a new game which was much more passive, although a lot shallower, but almost definitely still the right decision.

May well be playing either tomorrow / Friday / both, but plans could change. Hopefully book some more W's!

Edit: Feeling pretty smug right now - went to post this and it had logged me out. Fortunately have read enough threads to know that this can be a thing, so copied before trying to post!

Good start, thanks for the shout out as well man, subbed : )

Few comments which you may/may not find useful as you go...


1. Easy to get stuck in Emps/Hippo/Aspers, as a fellow country guy make sure you get out into the city as well!
2. No shame in playing a LV strategy out of the gate, especially in soft £1/£2 games if you've been running bad to get your confidence back after a few bad sessions
3. 1000BB days/swings part and parcel of the grind, as the variance over the months can be quite high.
4. Try not to put too much onus on your own results as for live poker it can be very slow to converge. Good example is Mike Macdonald he himself, a high stakes MTT crusher, willing to say he could have just been on a massive heater over the years.
5. Try and post a bunch of the bad HH's as they are the ones you'll tend to learn a lot from, I'm guilty of not doing this enough myself.
6. Really hone on in on how london recreational players tend to play, what kind of hands they like to limp in with, which ones only raise JJ+, but limp AK etc. In 2017 its easy to go on your phone all the time and not pay attention but itll make a massive differnce to your winrate.
7. I cant stress game selection enough, if the games suck go out, enjoy the sun (when it comes out :P), grind online for practice etc
8. Pattern recognition, how recs tend to play at certain casinos, I don't want to give all my tricks away (and they might now even be right �� but definitely pay attention to how people tend to play certain hands, what they like to donk with etc
9. Make sure you abuse your points for meals and things like that
10. Being friendly and dorky is amazing for your image, people tend to play more straightforwardly vs you, people dont care paying you off etc. Can work other way if you're laggier and therefore quieter, but do pay attention to your own image/personality and how that fits in with card players!
11. Spend your cash and again rather than leaving it on deposit, you're a young guy flash it around a bit after a good session thats why you're there to play after all!
12. You don't have to straddle, there are other ways to maintain a good table image as discussed...smilings free! (and doesnt eat into your win rate).


I could go on all day really but hope thats of some help, glgl!

Pre, prefer making it bigger as people really value the button live.

Flop , think its just a clear bet as people love to put you on AK/AQ etc. Regarding getting raised I wouldnt really overthink it too much as I think people are too passive with pairs in general (my opinion...), although they may well turn it into a bluff later...also if someone folds QT or whatever thats great too (although we'd probably prefer a call) to protect our equity.

Turn looks good

River meh, its not ideal because its the Empire I'd probably call, in a vacuum fold, but thats my experience personally he can show up with all kinds of nonsense like KQ, KJ, loads of offsuit broadways, its live poker so basically anything tbh!

Cheers for the replies acid, that first post is definitely a great help - I think a lot of the points are things that I already knew in the back of my mind, but knowing them and actually doing them are two very different things! At least for the "post bad HHs" I should have plenty to choose from...
And can confirm #12 is definitely a leak of mine, especially when I seem to end up with a Laggy enough image pretty quickly, the straddle really isn't needed!

Re: the HH, yeah that makes sense - basically bet til we get raised can't be too far wrong!

May well be playing again tomorrow at Aspers so will hopefully have an update, but am also gonna hopefully be more active on the forum, and get posting in a few threads rather than just lurking like I have been doing!

Game : Aspers 1/2
Duration : 3hours
In for : £785
Out for : £0 (and ran above EV to finish with that....)

So. Afternoon session today didn't go well! The Aspers games that I've played, especially during afternoons, tend to me more reg-gy than similar Empire games, but I'd say the standard of "reg" is better at Empire (there's just a lot less of them).

Straight into a couple of hands:
Hand1 - Hero is MP with KcKs

Fish limps UTG, Hero raise to 10 (probably too small), and get 5 callers!

Flop 7d3d3h (pot 60)

Hero bets 30, folded to SB who raises to 75, hero thinks and shoves for 290 total, SB calls

Turn Ax
River Qx

SB shows T3hh.
Side note, SB had just been stacked in a 1k pot and seemed pretty tilted before the start of the hand

Hand2 - hero is BB with 65o, immediately after hand1 (loltiltcalls)

Reg r10 UTG, MP calls, fish calls SB, i call BB

Flop 3c4d5h (Pot 40)

Check, hero check, UTG b30, fold fold, hero raises to 90, UTG thinks and shoves 240, we call it off

Turn 7d
River 2c

UTG shows AA, MHIG.


Hand3 - Hero is MP with QQ
Button is self declared tilted, 3betting the last 5 hands, and 3b jammed with 72s just before

Fish limp, hero raise 10, button 3bets to 23, fish calls, hero 4bets to 80, call, call.

Flop AcTh9d (pot 243)

Fish checks, hero realises fish's stack and bets 75, BTN calls all in for 50, fish calls all in for 75.

Turn 9c
River 5c

Button shows 87cc and scoops.


On the plus side, it was a nice enough table, chatting with a couple of the regs and keeping an eye on the tennis etc. I also ALMOST straddled when I was stuck, then remembered advice point #12 from acid, pulled it back, and folded my 74o UTG

Not playing this weekend as it's my birthday on Monday, so will be focussing on beer etc for the next few days!

Oh, one other hand that is probably worth a mention:

Hero is MP with 3h3d

UTG raise to 7, fish calls, Hero calls, button calls

Flop Jh 3c 3s (pot 31)



UTG checks, fish bets 10, hero calls, button calls, UTG folds

Turn Kh (pot 61)

Fish checks, hero bets 30, button folds, fish folds

Me after having dreams of getting unstuck with quads, to see both fold:

Hand 1,
Pre as a default in a splashy game I just make it £15 over an iso, in a very loose game make it £15 + 1 for every limper ; )
Flop, grim spot, I think I prefer flatting though and repping a flush draw if turn bricks and keeping his range wide. Also if a flush gets there, he might have already had a 3 and had us beat

Hand 2

Pre, no comment : D
Flop, I think this is fine with this much equity on a rainbow flop

Hand 3, Another silly spot haha, um, I guess I play it the same!
Hand 4, WP

UL on the session sure you'll pull it together next time, enjoy your bday post pics : D

Just got a seat on aspers 1-2.

Lets see if being a year older makes me any less of a fish...

Game : Aspers 1/2
Duration : 6.5hrs
In for : £750
Out for : £1189

Well. Certainly one of my swingy-er sessions (which is saying something for me). Was on the best 1/2 game I've played in a long time, and was getting abused by the run good gods in dream spots (don't worry, this post isn't going to be a list of bad beats hands, will just show the highlight reel)! Then got it in for chunks against the one competent player on the table with a combo draw when he had turned topset, and suddenly we are repaid for all the previous hands by getting there.
Couple of HHs to follow, I usually end up taking notes on 3/4 hands in a session, think I've got 8/9 today, but some were simply so I remembered how I was losing money!

Hand1

Straddle 4, two limpers, reg makes it 21, I call button with AdQd, one limper calls (a guy who shall be known from here as Whale)

Flop KK9r (pot 74)

Check, reg bets 42, I call knowing reg sees me as super tight (not sure why! just never seem to have cards when he's in the game). Plan is somewhat ruined when whale calls.

Turn Tfd

Whale jams 76, reg thinks and folds QQ saying he was worried about me, I obv fold. Whale shows QJo NH.

Think with my image to the reg, calling is OK to rep the king. Main question was whether 3bet/call preflop, roughly 200BB deep effective

Hand2
Decent enough reg straddle5, two limpers, I raise 22 from BB with JdTd, straddle only caller.

Flop Js Ts 2h (Pot 54)

I bet 35, straddle calls

Turn Qc (Pot 124)

I bet 60, straddle calls

River Jc (Pot 224)

I bet 145, straddle folds what I think was 99.

First question is regarding the turn, I remember betting while thinking "I have no idea what my plan is from here". Fortunately rivering a boat helps with future decisions.
Also, writing the HHs like this makes me realise how frequently people underestimate the size of the pot in live poker 0 in my head, the turn and river bets werent <halfpot! So that's something I'm trying to focus on more.

Hand3

Whale raise to 10, one caller, I 3bet to 40 with QhQd on the button, whale is only caller

Flop J86ddd (Pot 93)

Whale checks, I bet 55, whale calls

Turn 9c (Pot 203)

Whale checks, I jam for his 153, he tank calls

River 8s

I flip my QQ expecting to ship the moneys. Whale flips over Ah8c. NHWPGG.

I know noone likes a bad beat story, but
1. It was quite a big hand in my session
2. I really took it well. Like people around the table ooh-ed etc, I just paid, said NH and moved on, and actually didn't feel myself tilting at all. I was aware that I may look tilted, so sized up my bets the next strong hand I got and won a bit back, but I managed to not tiltspew money away etc, which is a good sign

Hand4
Straddle is on, three limpers, I raise to 25 from the SB with KTss, BB and Whale call

Flop 9d 8s 3h (Pot 85)

I bet 30, call, call

Turn 9s

I bet 85, BB tank calls, Whale folds

River Qh

I jam for 105 eff, BB fistpumpinstasnap calls with... 5d5h.

Nice hand sir, here is the money and my soul.

Sidenote: he was not a sicko. He gave rubdowns about how he knew I had nothing,
had been "playing that preflop game all day" etc, if he had owned this hat, he would have put it on

I went to get chips to reload. Before I was sat back down, he had racked up and left

Hand5

New player (who turned out to be solid) raise to 10, I call button with AcTc, BB calls.

Flop 7c 6s 4c (Pot 31)

Check, New Player bets 26, I call, BB calls

Turn 9d (Pot 109)

Check, NP bets 60, I raise to 180, BB folds, NP shoves for 360, I call. NG shows 99 for turned top set.

River Jc

Went with the raise on the turn because I think NP probably has to fold all overpairs in that spot, which make up a lot of his possible hands. Even when we do run into a set,
still have 12 outs, which apparently is plenty!

Random stuff

Like I said above, one of the best things I took away from the session was that I carried on playing my usual game after the bad beat hand, especially on such a great table where the old me would have been trying to raise every hand and bully my way unstuck.
There were lots of other hands, mostly badbeats, which I haven't put in here becuase they generally play themselves (flush over flush etc), but overall very happy to book a win after the initial struggle.

TL;DR: Ran bad in good spots, lost money, ran good in bad spot, won money back.

Double update

Short version: Doing it in.
Longer version: Generally playing well initially, getting stuck in generally pretty standard spots, but finding myself going back to being more spewy when stuck like I used to. It's making me reassess how long I should be playing sessions etc, and need to work on not lapsing back like that / quitting the game if needed. Down £1100 in two sessions at Aspers. Grim.

Just the one interesting spot from today. Villain is a decent reg and nice guy, think we both respect each other's play etc.

Reg opens UTG to 7, two callers, I 3bet from the BB with JcJs to 30. Reg calls, button calls.

Flop 9h 8d 3s (pot 98)

I bet 45, reg call, button call

Turn Qd (pot 233)

I bet 85, reg thinks and shoves for 300, button folds, I tank call

Reg asks if I run it twice. Don't usually, but agree as this was early in the session / nice reg etc etc. He has K9dd

First run 3s
Second run Jd
Chop it up.

The turn, I just hate here, and I'm not sure what I should be doing. Seeing the sizings there, if I'm betting it feels too small. I remember being really unsure if I should be bet-calling, bet-folding, check-calling, check-raising, check-folding!
As played I think I'm ok calling the shove? Although I was surprised to see K9dd in his range for opening UTG+calling 3bet, so maybe I'm wrong here too if that means he can have way more JT/89 type hands than I was giving him credit for.

Otherwise just struggled to get anything going today. Lots of above average starting hands, on a table where the average raise size was 10BB. Then missing all flops by as far as is possible. Sigh.


Playing tomorrow afternoon at Empire by the sounds of it, will be the first Saturday I've played there in a while I think, so hopefully the games will be good and I can make up for the last few sessions!

Onwards + upwards etc.

K9dd hand above, id probably fold the turn - expect the reg to be really strong calling here with the fish behind, especially after he shoves after a cold caller behind.

We block JT but on the whole expect him tl be really value heavy here with loads of sets, two pair etc and if he is ever bluffing its going to be a really high equity hand like this.



Id also probably check turn although I do think its close - if he has K9dd in his range (if we were to know that in advance) I'd probably consider betting again I guess. Betting does make the hand somewhat easier to play (such that we can bet-fold in the knowledge that villain is rarely bluffing) so i would slightly lean towards that option

Booked a (drunk) win

So it turns out a beer after work, can turn into going to the Vic til 5.30am. And apparently drunk me, unlike sober me recently, is able to book a win!
Nothing hugely interesting, finished +£83 for the 3 hours we were there, but better than nothing! Flopped the nuts with QJ v old nit reg and got three streets, then made two overly tight folds with JJ against a friend (one right, one wrong).



Got an uber home at 5.30am, then had to wake up today to pack stuff for Glastonbury tomorrow morning, so will be a while before the next update because:


May well do a mini Glastonbury TR on here when I get back if I have the energy / photos / aren't still hungover. Made the genius decision of booking the Tuesday off as well next week, so may well write something then during my recovery day!

Oh, just remembered one hand from last night. Details / sizing may be somewhat sketchy for obvious reasons!

I raise to 10 MP with ATdd, CO calls, 50yo guy in hawaiian shirt calls button

Flop 9h 7d 4s (Pot 37)

I bet 20, fold, hawaiian calls

Turn 2h (Pot 77)

I bet 35 (I think?), hawaiian calls

River 7c (Pot 127)

I check, hawaiian bets 65 fairly quickly, I decide I'm calling pretty quickly but think for a few seconds so I don't look like I suck so much if I'm wrong, and call.

He shows J8ss, MHIG.

Everyone loves a hero!


Sidenote: Same guy had peeled earlier on an almost identical board v me with JTbdfd on 87x. That time, he spiked a Jack on the river and checked behind.

Glasto TR please! : P

ATdd hand, looks like a good game!

Pre good sizing if £1/£2

Flop I would check with CO and BTN behind. I would bet though if it were 3way with SB and BB say

Turn, I really hate your bet size here, he never has a strong hand here, if you're going to bet 1.2x pot it! I would probably check as played though. What was your reasoning for half pot?

River I like the call, we block some of then busted straight draws eg T8 but there's tons of gutshots out there so I think this is a good call getting 3:1

And post photos : P

Yeah, I was trying to put the hand together in my head, the turn sizing may be completely botched in the HH, but I agree the sizing sucks if I did bet 35! Blame the beer....
Overbetting in the spot seems quite nice - I've started overbetting a bit more recently but generally seems to be more on rivers rather than turns.


Based on trying to remember this HH, Glasto details might be a bit hazy too! But will try my best and will get plenty of photos!

Image test for the upcoming Glastonbury TR

GLASTONBURY TR - PART 1

Spoiler: Contrary to what I'm sure people expect upon seeing the words "Glastonbury TR", there are no mad drug-based stories to follow. Apologies in advance.

Wednesday

After waking up like a little kid on Christmas morning, it was time. The sun was out, the car was packed, and at 10:30am I started the ~2.5hour drive to Pilton for Glastonbury festival. Stories of last year's traffic, with 10hour tailbacks which we had somehow avoided, turned out to be non-existant. I arrived at the exact postcode given at about 1pm as expected. Unfortunately, due to not being able to find the start of the route into the festival, it took another 45minutes to actually get parked. But who cares! It's Glastonbury, I'm there, I'm managing to carry all of my tent/clothes/alcohol at once so there's no need for multiple trips, what could go wrong...


Just what I wanted to see in 30degree heat (that's hot for us Brits!). A gruelling 1h30 later, and we were inside the festival. Another 30mins later, I was at our camp site, and already wishing for a shower. Still, the new tent was easy enough to set up, and home sweet home was ready.

Unfortunately, the heat had taken its toll on all of us (one of the group especially, who passed out but was OK shortly after), so it was a pretty low key first day at the festival. Casual drinking, having a walk around to see some of the sights


before watching the fireworks next to the Park Stage



An earlyish night called, as we had all been wiped out by the earlier heat and trek with luggage.

Thursday

Up about 9.30am, breakfast time, fruit cider and some crisps - the Glastonbury life! None of the main stages had started yet, so wondered over for a chilled band at the Small World stage. Just two guys, with a violin and guitar, playing folk-type music to about 30/40 people. Not quite the headline acts we would see later, but a pretty cool way to spend a morning nonetheless.


We spent some time in the circus area watching various entertainment, headed up a lookout tower, and just enjoyed drinking in the sunshine while wandering around pretty aimlessly!



Our plans for the evening were to see Rhythm of the Nineties - a band who play covers of 90s club tunes (think Insomnia, Rhythm of the Night, Freed From Desire etc). I was too excited for this than I probably should have admitted to, and we decided that the correct thing to do after a day drinking, was to pre-drink then head over.
We got there at 11ish for an 11.30 start, and it was just as well. They were in a small tent, which probably held about 1000, and shortly after we got in, security had to stop letting any more in - it was full with another 1500 or so people watching from outside.

(sorry terrible pic quality)

Despite a fairly hazy memory by this point, it was incredible. While it can't compete with the headliners in terms of size/quality, this was genuinely the most fun set I saw over the weekend! Not bad considering the stages don't officially start until Friday...

Next part: the start of the main stages, beginning with a performance from (threadsaver) Dua Lipa.

nice tr and good luck with the poker.

WWFC, wycombe? got to love Akinfenwa

Thanks and thanks

Yepp the mighty Wycombe! Love Akinfenwa but its hard not to - he's actually really ynderrated for his on the ball skills, hes not just a big strong guy to lump highballs at (although it does sometimes come to that...)

GL in League1 this year after last years survival - guessing you weren't expecting league games v Blackburn and Wigan a few years ago!

yeah he's quality no idea how he's got such good ball skills being that size though. also such a good strike partner to cause havoc and create some goals himself.

notice you got harriman- good little player and weston's a very decent league 2 player I think.

how do you rekon wycombe will do this season? always seem to be up there at the end of the season.

cheers for the goodluck I'd settle for us just staying up at the moment...... selling our best players and not replacing them.

yeah weren't expecting big games like that especially after being relegated at your place a few seasons ago........ guess I'll wish you good luck for this season though

Nice TR buddy! Looks like you had a great time, personally I can't put up with music festivals any more, thought if I had to pick one these days it'd probably be glastonbury!

Yeah its not a bad squad. I think realistically we'll be there or there abouts again for playoffs, just hopefully we don't choke in the last couple months this time round!

And haha thanks, I think the less said about that day the better all round!

TYTY!

GLASTONBURY TR - PART 2

Friday

Woke up Friday morning feeling slightly worse for wear, and also realised I had probably under-packed on the alcohol front - GG paying £5 a pint for the weekend. However the hangover at least could be easily cured by a sausage/bacon/wedges/cheese/salsa wrap <3

The Friday lineup didn't really have much jumping out for me. We watched a couple of bands I hadn't heard much of in the early afternoon - Nothing But Thieves putting in a solid performance. Then to the John Peel stage for last update's threadsaver; Dua Lipa. Massive turnout for it, and she delivered with a decent set. Apparently Chris Marting of Coldplay was seen with her, so GGWP him.


Also saw Charlie XCX (I know, I listen to too much modern-chart-crap-music) although she was pretty disappointing.A good evening of music followed though, with Royal Blood and Lorde both being very impressive


good turnout for Lorde, who for some reason had dancers in a box on stage.

From there it was a rush for a "secret set" on the Park Stage, with rumours flying round about who it could be. As it turned out, it was Elbow, which was pretty cool!


Noneof our group were particularly exvited by the thought of Radiohead headlining, so instead opted for some other stages, but neither Dizzee Rascal nor Major Lazer were really what we were hoping for / expecting. In the end, beers and some chips on the hill seemed like the best way to round of the night, and it wasn't a bad view for it....



A quick trip via Arcadia to finish the night, because as if spiders weren't bad enough already, they had a 30min show dedicated to one that breathes fire!



Saturday

Saturday followed a similar start to Friday - greasy breakfast, couple of smaller bands. Then the one that we weren't even ashamed to be excited for - BUSTED! #throwback
They were on a much smaller stage, and the crowd could have filled the stage 4 times over!

They played a fair few "classics" which had everyone singing along, and it was just a great fun set!

With our music taste coolness at an all time high after Busted(!) the only correct hing do was Pyramid stage for... Katy Perry. Another pretty good show although not helped by some sound issues, but at least it gives me another excuse for a threadsaver (from before the haircut though, because, cmon Katy.)


Saturday night came, and there was only one place we were going. Pyramid stage for Foo Fighters headline set - 2 years later than they were initially planned. Apparently we weren't the only ones with this plan for the night


Foos were insane. Comfortably the best show of the weekend, and surpassing the highlights of last year too for me. Dave Grohl was great, and the crowd chants during My Hero will give me goosebumps when I watch it back. It's on BBC Iplayer now, so when you have a 2hrs, go watch it!

Sunday

Another day, another unhealthy lunch


But:
1. That burrito was beautiful. Seriously. Almost got a NSFW tag. That good.
2. Deaf Havana were pretty good for an unknown-to-me band
3. The ground! We were able to sit at the Other Stage while eating. This time last year, the whole site was about a foot deep in mud everywhere - the sun really made a huge difference!

After lunch, a casual stroll around the more traditional "hippie" areas of Glastonbury - healing fields and Stone Circle, plus the weirder side of Glastonbury with the Unfairground.


Back in time for Rag N Bone Man, who got the biggest turnout I have ever seen on the Other Stage. It was incredible, and you could tell he was slightly overwhelmed by it when he first came out, but put in a really good performance.


Finishing the Sunday were the two sets I was probably most looking forward to - Biffy Clyro and Ed Sheeran. Neither disappointed.
Biffy were great as they always are. Ed Sheeran had come in for some stick both before and after questioning whether he was a good choice to close the festival. While he wasn't as explosive/exciting as the Foos the night before, I enjoyed it a lot and was losing my voice near the end!
https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net...3e&oe=59D8299B

Some casual drinks with mates to round off the weekend and a brilliant trip. Then I was up early this morning (Monday), left the campsite by 8, out of the car park by 9, and home by lunchtime.

Incredible 5 days, just sucks that they have a year off next year. 760 days to go and counting....

Loved it haha

Jokes about busted, about 2 years the guy who formed fightstar sat down in the hippo with £200. I like Charlie XCX too
