Wireless
It was the weekend, we took a trip to the
Wireless Festival in London. It was relocated this year to The Queen Elizabeth
Olympic Park in Stratford, and with the
weather sizzling, the shizzle HOV was a
godsend to this three day non-stop party.
Being the headliner for days 2 and 3, it was left to Shawn
to entertain the crowd. He kicked it off with big old
school tunes, 'It's a Hard Knock Life', 'Encore', 'Run This
Town' and '99 Problems', setting the festival alight. He
then moved on to GOOD music's 'Clique', positively reflecting masses, who loved every second.
Capping off the show with a duet with Justin Timberlake, it was perfected as they belted out 'Holy Grail'
together. Mr Carter had a stage presence like no other
with a crowd of 60,000; he had them chanting every
single word! "I'm so excited" expressed the multi-millionaire, as were we!
Jay-z has once again proved himself to be on top of the
game. This was a crazy weekend never to be forgotten.
Encore, do you want more?

There are many things you can do for 11 hours. One could travel to anywhere in America; You could also maybe walk from London to Manchester or even watch a season and a half of 'Game of Thrones' or...
The festival was absolutely teeming with talent from
'Hardwell' to 'Rusko' all bases were covered. The atmosphere was one of excitement and pride. There was
no shortage of home talent as well with artists such as
'Flux Pavillion' and 'Sub Focus' sending fans wild with
excitement. Dance supremo's 'Nero' also played at the
festival and received a rapturous reception. Wonder
– kid 'Madeon' headed up the second stage and flew
the flag for elecro house with artists such as 'Alesso'.
Mistajam , Chuckie and Shy FX also rocked the spot.
What a night what a day. If this is the first and only time
EDC comes to London then we are glad we got there.
However after the resounding success it has to return.
As people file out of the park and make their way towards the tube stations chants of the main hooks from
'Calling' and 'Years' by Alesso ring through my ears.
Stratford station is absolutely buzzing.
