WakeStock 2010

If you wanted to know what Wakestock 2009 was “saying”,….. It was saying a lot!

I did attend this weekend of cavorting and snorting. Needless to say it was (catch phrase of the weekend) “big time”. Acts such as N.E.R.D., Goldie Chase & Status featured on the Saturday night, to which I was present.

The place to be on the best evening of the event had to be the Relentless tent. So named after the energy drink, without a sense of irony as the bass was actually relentless.

Having released their debut album earlier last year Chase & Status had to be the best act of the evening, and by the sounds of the hardcore Wakestock crowd, the best act of the weekend!

Starting out their set with their premier album song “I can’t get enough” remixed with just bass, precipitated the crowd going into a bouncing frenzy. Someone was crushed. Silver lining being whoever it was continued to party on the floor, in the hope that this new style of dance would catch on. It certainly did not. They finished their set with Pieces as per usual.

This is the third time I’ve seen them live, Warehouse Project, Manchester and Chibuku, Liverpool, they are only getting better. Oh my.

In summation, Relentless is the most happening place in Abersoch.
