A really exciting day today as Her and I went to watch Paul Simon play his Graceland album at Hard Rock Calling Festival in London's Hyde Park. After the watching the documentary made for the 25th anniversary of the release of the record, which stoked the fires of anticipation that little bit more, the little man did not disappoint. In dry conditions (a rare moment of mercy in this wet summer) he started out playing a greatest hits set then introduced various guests before the show morphed into a full-on celebration of Graceland after the sun went down.
Stunning. Unlike the festival food we had! We opted to forgo the usual festival fayre of burgers and such like and went for a £10 Pizza. It was Hawaiian. We waited around 20 minutes for it. And we laughed our heads off when we opened the box. Inside contained a sad 7 inch pizza with a bit of tomato sauce spread on the base topped with cheese and a meagre sprinkle of ham and pineapple. I guess you don't go to festivals for the food!
