Had a great time at Good Vibrations Society this weekend.
First act I saw was the most entrancing. Rozsa stroking a harp and singing angelically with a backing track. She was great.
The North London Gospel Choir doing Graceland was pretty cool. They got some mad energy, all those gospel synced dance moves. Lovely to hear that album in a new way.
Enjoyed the Gentlemen Dub Club and Riot Jazz and So Solid Crew. Watched a nice sunset at camp.
Lovely small site, great crowd. Hung with some friends and met old ones I hadn't seen for years.
Also tripped over a guy rope in the dark on the first night and hurt my wrist pretty bad.
Walked away after a moment on the floor assessing damage but visited the medical tent. My wrist swelled up so much the next day I had to have my wristband replaced. Drive home somewhat more perilous as a result. Thank goodness for automatic gear boxes.

Montana ranked second worst in the country in terms of prevalence of mental illness and access to care, according to the non-profit Mental Health America.
Two-thirds of adults in Montana also lived in homes with guns, the highest rate in the country, according to a 2016 study from RAND, a thinktank.

My favourite hammock for on our balcony broke and landed me on my ass, last month. Just got around to fixing it with parts of a new lashing strap that's rated for much more weight than me. The hammock itself is still in good shape, so this should last me some more years, now.
(I got the hammock from Kickstarter years ago, in a time when I was still fascinated by that website...

A bright green fabric hammock suspended on a balcony. The hammock is attached to a metal frame at the top, which is then secured to the balcony structure with straps. A black cat is visible lying on the balcony floor near the hammock, and various outdoor furniture and household items are in the background.
Close-up of two white fabric straps with purple stitching where they are looped and attached to carabiners, with a brown strap hanging down in the center. In the background, out of focus, is a light-colored outdoor shade and a glimpse of green trees.
The old strap, with a fix I attempted earlier. Of course, the strap was too short and resulted in a lopsided hammock. A coiled grey or tan strap with a small, dark fabric loop at one end, resting on a pillow with a red and grey plaid pattern.
