 Forecast: Rain... Crap. Actually I haven't seen so much rain in late June, as I have today - Hopefully that means that it's going to be all rained out next week. The forecasts aren't good - They have changed for the better though. It actually looked even worse yesterday. Reports from on-the-ground-reporter Duddi, part of the event group at Roskilde, tells grim stories of mudd, the depth of which can only be imagined. Be afraid, be very afraid. Wearing rubber boots just isn't rock and roll. Anyways the music:
Maybe a year to late, but there none the less, will be Erlend Oye's other band, besides Kings of Convenience, namely The Whitest Boy Alive - an apt title for the Norwegan ladykiller.
The Whitest Boy Alive is mainly a nice indie-dancy band backing Erlend, but it is actually quite catchy and will probably fit well with the 21.00 p.m. timeslot on Saturday after a nice round of Flaming Lips.

Last thing I'll see on this years festival is probably French house legend Laurent Garnier playing 20:15 on saturday (If I haven't drowned by then). Apparently so old in the game that he inspired both the Happy Mondays and the Stone Roses. He has been DJ'ing since I was very wee - hopefully he still has some tricks up his sleeve.
