The young Mumfs are still on the Stars-and-Stripes side of the ATLANTIC OCEAN as I write, tirelessly touring Sigh No More, bringing their own brand of unique banjo heat, and even unique-er brand of hot bodies, to our American friend’s ears and eyes. Mumford HQ received word that temperature had reached critical level and that the boys required an urgent cooling down; they tried ‘chillaxing’ poolside with Jeff Bridges and a couple of white russians, before listening to ‘chillwave’ with Ernest Greene while eating ‘chillidogs’ (note to self; chillidogs presumably quite hot, replace ‘chillidogs’ with ‘icecream’) – all epic ‘chilling’ sho’ ’nuff, but to no avail. Sometimes you just can’t beat the classics…
People often assume that TOUR is an endless succession of partying, drinking, dancing and general mayhem-ing. Not entirely true. Not entirely wrong, but not entirely true either. More often than not, when looking for the ultimate wind down, the uber chill, The Sons opt for a game of Buckaroo. Load that mule, cos you never know when he’s gonna buck, buck, buckaroo. You should see their faces, they love it! Can’t get enough of that donkey and his little sombrero.
The only thing better than Buckaroo is Bonnaroo. For those not in the know, Bonnaroo is an amazing four-day camping festival of music and more music held June 10th – 13th on 700 acres of farmyard in beautiful Manchester, Tenessee, USA and will this year see sets from Kings of Leon, Jigga, Phoenix, The Temper Trap, The XX, LCD Soundsytem and the mighty Avett Brothers! That’s it I think… Oh, and Mumford & Sons will be playing too!! *scream/swoon*
Check the full line-up HERE! Fact fans go HERE! Those seeking truths and tickets head HERE!!
The campaign to get Mumford HQ out to to Bonnaroo starts here and now because this looks INCREDIBLE! You’d be a fool to miss out on this…!
