Glasgowbury 2011 - Rainy Boy Sleep
Eagles Rock, 5.15pm
Describe in a Tweet: One for the ladies?!
What happened: Within seconds of king geek wandering onstage, it's obvious this will be one of the sets of the day. Screaming girls and mild hysteria - just what is going on here? Thankfully, he has the tunes to back it up, that much is clear within moments of the first strum. It's just one guy and a loop pedal, but it works a treat. Even the start of a guitar solo - the START - is greeted with a roar during 'Shopping Centre Song'. Only 'Manchester Post' cries out for a full band, but even then it's nicely frantic.
Goldstar: 'Your Face', while not the standout track, was apparently written on the campsite a matter of hours previously. Rainy Boy Sleep really is Mr. Glasgowbury 2011.
Lost at Sea: The ladies love him. ATL becomes bitter and jealous.
Rating: 9/10
