Twit 020 – Cornerstone

The last festival of our stint of five was Cornerstone. This was a big one because everyone had built this one up as better than all the rest. Hippy Christians ran this festival and they were generally more hands off and more creative and grass roots as opposed to formulaic and established.

It delivered in both those ways. Bands that blew my mind were Bradley Hathaway and mewithoutyou. They both played on the same stage at the same time on consecutive nights and both times I was backstage. mewithoutyou included a stage invasion and we all danced on stage together. It was great.

Also we stayed with a family called the Shevlots who are friends of XXXChurch. They were the most genuine people you could hope to meet.
