GODIVA 2014

Cheers, guys, will check it out. Coventry isn't too far from us, but a tad too far to commute daily, I suspect ....

Last year was a smashing festival, Echo & the Bunnymen ripped the Friday then Reverend & the Makers and Maximo rocked the Saturday..

Strongly recommend it..

Saw the Mondays in late 2012 , thought they were gonna be shit.. Turned up SOBER!!! And played a belter, more of the same please..

(Surely can't last though right?)

Yeah...tempted by the Friday now. Was only going to do Sunday if DLS v SP were on that day but given they're on the Saturday no need.

Weather slowly picking up...

[Flaminglippy]

Forecasts still bit ropey. Not that it matters...no way I'm missing it!

[Perks]

Yeah shame it looks like the weather is changing. But it was so nice last year, we can't moan. You never know, might still be nice. I am really looking forward to it..

[Flaminglippy]

[Flaminglippy]

Yeah...latest ones I could find were a variation on 'Dinosaurs/Dumb Luck/Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt/Chick Lit/Sprinkles/Lousy Reputation/I Don't Bite/Rules Don't Stop/Make It Easy/Slow Down/The Great Escape/After Hours/Its A Hit/Nice Guys'.

Bang happy with that!

Just back, seems to get bigger and bigger with acoustic tents dotted around and by the fairground. Dan le Sac/Scroobius Pip were great thoughtful bouncealong. Watched a few acts in the other stages before the Mondays, who were surprisingly professional, and the crowd reacted to every Bez encouragement. Too many piss-cups flying for my liking though.

[luckysalt]

How on form were the Mondays! Bloody brilliant performance. Was well chuffed with it.

WAS were alright, but didn't seem that fussed about it, seen them better, but they wasn't awful either.

Really enjoyed everyone who played to be honest, only stayed on main stage this year, but got there about 1pm so saw most of the acts, fucking Johnny Doom does my head in tho.

Just saying to this a pal, The Mondays were up for it, last time I saw Ryder he was a disgrace and people were walking out, but Sat night, fair play, really enjoyable, apparently sober now too!!

Only went Saturday this year, had a bloody brilliant day though, agree on WAS, disappointed me a bit, DLS V SP defo had the crowd going, I was chilling back though, so not in the mix. But yeah fair play Cov City Council putting it on, becoming a summer fixture of mine now - thought the vibe was great again, and the weather was ace!

Anyone go yesterday?

[amfy]

I was there yesterday (Sunday). We wished we had gone for more of the weekend - what a great set up for a free festival - you'd be looking at £80-100 for that weekend almost anywhere, if not more.

The weather held for most of the day. It rained lightly for about the first 20 mins of The Llghtening Seeds, after being baking hot all day. Then there was a magic moment when the sun came back out in the middle of Life Of Reilly. They played a great set. I always forget how good they are. I loved it!

I took my 10 year old son to his first "BIG" festival... we really enjoyed it. Can't believe it had such a good line up, was so well organised, an excellent vibe - all for FREE! Happy Mondays were on great form - and we really enjoyed DLS V SP. Well done Cov Council. Will definitely return next year.
