A successful start

So we're here at Leeds Festival, and have just managed to get an internet connection. So much has happened already that our barbeque on Wednesday night seems like a very long time ago. We spent most of Thursday preparing, which involved lots of walking around the site, checking equipment, practising performances, preparing backstage areas, and being quizzed on lots of festival info.

Our HATs (Helpful Arena Teams) are busy helping festival-goers as I write, and our performance artists and campsite DJs have had their first successful night, which included singing to the punters when the PA system failed. The BBC Introducing stage team started off supporting the Dance to the Radio night and are now fully in control on the first full day of bands.
