Festival Q&A:
Pop Will Eat Itself
Graham Crabb tells us a hotel room is the only thing on his festival rider, ahead of playing the Gigantic Indie All Dayer, 27 May
Who else are you excited to see at Gigantic?
I’ll be checking out Jim Bob, The Wedding Present and Primitives, I should imagine.
What’s your best festival memory?
Booting a football into the crowd at Reading. Telling the same joke twice. I wasn’t drunk. Well, I was, but I couldn’t hear for our guitarist Adam making a racket down my ear hole as he had problems. The gigs seem to be over in a split second. Love the time onstage/offstage, meeting everyone, happy days.
What are your festival essentials?
These days, a hotel room.
How does playing a festival differ from playing your own gig?
More enjoyable, less pressure, more people to meet. Cavorting and horsing around.
What’s you favourite part of playing a festival?
The cavorting and horsing around.
