Concert in Hyde Park
We went to the Hard Rock Calling concert at Hyde Park tonight to see The Killers and The Kooks. Seeing a concert in the park here is like going to a fair, complete with a variety of food stalls and drinks. The interesting thing about that is that you can walk around, grazing on different foods (meat pie, hot dog, ice cream, etc) while listening to the music. We of course made our way deep into the crowd during the Killers show, which was fun and very warm. Since all of the beer bottles are plastic, many of them get thrown from one area of the crowd to another. They don’t seem to hurt when you get hit by one, but thankfully I never found out. You just have to watch out for ones that still have beer in them, since a spiralling beer bottle tends to shower everyone below it in beer.
