The festival five with...Emmy the Great.
5 band I've loved this summer...
Blur are number one, I saw them at Glastonbury. Q-Tip. He was incredible. I gave up Neil Young to see him. I was drunk and I kept shouting at the stage: "He does what he wants". People were saying, "Play Vibrancy!" and I kept going "He does what he wants to do!" I saw Billy Bragg round a camp fire. Florence & The Machine was amazing and Jarvis Cocker was great too.
4 things I take on tour...
I bring soya milk everywhere I go, just because I know they won't have it. I bring an inordinate amount of tights and underwear. I bring a basket of dried food everywhere and it's my basket. If anyone else puts anything in there I get really territorial. I need to feel nested. I have cutlery in there which I never use. I bring a portable shower kit with me everywhere I go which includes many different types of wipe. Hopefully, it'll mean I don't get swine flu.
3 best moments this year...
Playing Hong Kong was amazing because I'm from Hong Kong. My aunties I haven't seen for years were there, all my parents friends, my cousins - it was brilliant. The album came out which was obviously brilliant and both my best friends got books commissioned at the same time.
2 festival annoyances...
There are too many people and too many bands.
1 bit of festival advice...
Just bring so many knickers... not that you're dirty!
