Primavera (Friday night) 2008 - Probably the greatest moment of my life02 June 2008by Caius Pawson

I was fortunate enough to be able to go to Primavera Sound, (Barcelona,) this year. Not only is it the best festival I’ve ever been to (line up, venue, city, crowd, atmosphere, etc etc) but there were also two Young Turks acts playing: the hometown hero, El Guincho and Holy Fuck.

I’m planning on writing up a full review of the festival a bit later but for now I’ll leave you with the photo story of what was one of the most phenomenal festival shows I’ve ever seen, Holy Fuck at Primavera 2008:

(every photo tells a story, click on it to go through to the story and see the other photos i didn’t bother posting up.)
