London: Rise Festival

I went to London's free anti-racism festival at Finsbury Park held yesterday. I wasn't familar with most acts on the bill and spent some time at the Cuba Fiesta tent listening to hip hop (I was hoping for some salsa) and queueing for MSG at the Chinese food stall. I had a backstage pass courtesy of a friend who worked the festival so managed to freeload some alcohol courtesy of the London tax payer. Cheers!

I heard The Buzzcocks (I only knew Have You Ever Fallen in Love With Someone) and The Wailers who were brilliant and really got the crowd singing and dancing.
