More Cans Festival
Once again Leake St. in London has been opened up to some of the best graffiti artists. Whilst it's a shame to see some Banksy pieces go, there are some amazing pieces there instead.
Rather than put the pics here I've uploaded them into Flickr

London Clipper Cruise
I met up with a friend and went to the Tutankhamen exhibition at the O2. It was pretty good but the boat trip up the river was better!
Strange piece of art at the boarding station.

Tiesto @ O2
Having just finished off his Elements of Life tour, Tiesto decides to go straight into another, this time promoting his In Search of Sunrise 7 album. Calling this tour a "more intimate" one he rather cheekily kicked it off at the O2 in London. One of the newest and largest music venues residing within the former Millennium Dome. It holds upwards of 10,000 people, not that intimate at all.
Initial support was provided by First State, who as well as releasing "Falling" (one of the bigger trance anthems in recent years) also looked like a couple of school kids who'd won a competition. But they did an OK job in getting the crowd ready. Then Tiesto came out and the place went off.
The obligatory confetti cannons during Adagio.
What's my name?
Same ending footage as on his last tour, which I'd forgive him for, but no lasers this time around. This time he finished with Billie Ray's (not Cyrus) "Put Your Loving Arms Around Me". Closing the night was Airbase, best known for his "Medusa" track.
Proof that I'd made it to the end of the night. I'd danced almost none-stop from 10-6. :D
