3rd October, Cardiff castle with the Stereophonics

We drove down the M4 to Cardiff to do a gig with the Stereophonics. It was inside Cardiff Castle.

This is me by the Norman "Keep" which is built on top of a Roman fort. There is also a medieval and Victorian wall that surrounds the castle and that's where we were playing.

We got there ahead of time so we went to the "New York deli" to get some food. They do some great Hoggies.

We brought them back and sat in frount of the massive stage that had been erected for the gig and waited for our sound check.


After the sound check we went to our "area", which was a 10 minute walk into the depths of the castle.

It was well medieval, I think they have filmed Doctor Who down there.

Eggsy's dad turned up and got on it. He is well safe.

So we got ready to go, it was a long walk back to the stage.

We went on and it was amazing doing a gig inside the castle walls.

The crowd were so so loud. It was a proper rave up. We did a quick 30 minute set with all the party bangers, and we got all the words right. Eggsy even got given a Reni given to him on stage, cause he had stomach acid.

After we had a quick chat with Lee Jones who works for a locally based radio station.

And then we walked back to our "area" in the bowels of the castle.

We had been given a few bottles of wine which Billy poured into water bottles to take with him to watch the Stereophonics. Apparently he was seen stumbling up Stow Hill in Newport later that night off his head singing Irish songs and walking into things.
A great day out at Cardiff castle.
