Bestival 2007 was the most fun I've EVER had in 3 consecutive days. Seriously. The fancy dress day is brilliant. I saw a gorilla chasing a bunch of bananas, a fleet of red arrow planes 'flying' in formation across the site, and heard that Team America ambushed the ghost busters. And Primal Scream, the Chemical Brothers, DJ Yoda, Madness(!), The Beastie Boys, Bat for Lashes, The Gossip... so much fun.
