Huw Stephens highlights from Latitude

I thought the first year was special, but Latitude 07 was even better! I arrived on Thursday and went for a wander round the site - the woods and lake were still where they were and looked beautiful, and then the film on the Lake stage. It was Alfred Hitchcock's The Lodger, which was great. And then about ten minutes in, Jon Dunn, my mate Wally and me noticed the live orchestra playing the soundtrack. That was great! It felt like a festival hitting all the senses - oh to be able to have a weekend off and see eveything!

Other highlights across the weekend for me was - Polar Bear's poetry, Stuart Silver in the Literature tent, crepes, short French films, every band on the Lake Stage from Dan le Sac vs Scroobious Pip to Gentle Good, Middleman to Duloks, TANAOU to Hot Puppies, Sam Isaac to Get Cape, Vessels to - just everybody!

I enjoyed the late night partying, Rob da Bank djing in the woods, Andy Votel, Gruff Rhys, Jarvis Cocker, Forecast, Vinyl Vendettas and ex boyfriends records djing, Arcade Fire and Rodrigo y Gabriela, and the whole vibe I saw was lovely.

Here's to next year!
