Eurocultured

The Bank Holiday Weekend of 25th/26th May saw the return of the Eurocultured Festival, I went with Ant & Elizabeth - we only managed to make the Monday, but was a nice cheaper alternative to Hungry Pigeon (which I wanted to go to, but was a wee bit to skint/busy to go to). We arrived at just after 1pm and paid our dues to go in, only to be turned back as "they weren't ready yet", told to come back in half an hour, we retreated to the nearby Grand Central pub, which over looked the entrance.. to see the others we had been "thrown out with" being let back in.. sigh!
So after finishing drinks in GC we headed to the Font where we had arranged to meet any other flickrites who might be in the vicinity. Had some nice food in the Font (as usual, I had my old fav, the chicken Caesar wrap!) The weather kinda went a bit clouded over at this point, although still warm, so we had a wander around, marvelled at the graffiti, especially this piece:

By Fauna - although I freely admit, didn't know anything about until someone on flickr pointed me in the right direction!
We saw a band or two on the stage that was powered by bicycles, but ended up heading into the Thirsty Scholar where Adam's friend was DJ'ing - really cool Hip Hop set with some cypress hill and plenty of old school hip hop, was the best set I'd heard in a while


As well as bands and Dj's and the afore mentioned graffiti walls for artists to create pieces over the weekend the festival also had a market area

selling everything from tshirts to scarves to jewellery, as well as a nearby Haunted House which was also a bouncy castle. We would've stayed a bit later but the weather which had been quite overcast, really started to turn, so we went home! Great Day in all.. i hope to see more of it next year maybe (As I seem to have missed it the past 2 years!) Rest of the photos here
