Lovebox in tweets
Whilst one half of the Q online crew de-camped to Suffolk for Latitude Festival this past weekend, the other half were at Lovebox on Saturday. Here's a tweet by tweet account:
- The other Q festival contingent are out in force! (the non-Latitude bunch). Arrived at Lovebox. VV Brown endearing and exciting the East End home crowd. #lovebox 15:15
- #RumbleStrips on stage - Girls And Boys In Love. Cue lots of summer
bopping! 15:43 #lovebox
- Off to check out the Temper Trap #lovebox 16:05
- At the Temper Trap, pulsating elecronics and dancey beats with angular
guitars. Going well with pear cider and the sun. #lovebox. 16:25
- Over too soon for the crowd here! #lovebox 16:30
- Florence on-stage - wind-swept but every bit the chanteuse.
Seems to have worked though, the crowd are all for her. 18:17 #lovebox
- Cameraman loves her peacock heels, as do several women next to
me in the crowd. 18:31 #lovebox
- Now she's giving the audience bunches of flowers, very generous! #lovebox
- Covering You've Got The Love! Feeling a bit retro, wasn't expecting this... #lovebox
- Florence is finishing, she seems overwhelmed, the audience love her #lovebox
- Watching N*E*R*D* - "all the pretty girls in London" invited on stage. Blokes still waiting for their invite ;) #lovebox
- N*E*R*D* now dancing with about 50 people (mostly women) on-stage. Last time I saw a stage this busy was when M.I.A. got the plug pulled on her at Connect Fest in 2007. #lovebox
- Pharell and co. off-stage. Audience into it {just} took a while to get going despite their crowd invite and atempts at conversation, mentioning rival cities "Does London have more energy than Paris?" etc.
- Duran Duran on-stage "Hello London town, put on your dancing shoes" straight into Wild Boys 21:!0 #lovebox
- Simon Le Bon interestingly attired. A cross between the fat controller in Thomas The Tank and Nicholas Nickleby. #lovebox
- He keeps going the back of the stage and spitting lots, eeeurgh!
- Think he must be ill, it's happening lots! :S
- Strange videos presentations, think lo-budget psychedelic and Psycho but the woman killing a man in the shower.
- Girls on Film - the moment most of the crowd have been chanting for!
- End of set... "Thanks a lot, it's nice to play in greatest city in the world under the sky" #lovebox
