"Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell
Crash
I'm the last splash."

Midsummer’s eve, the longest day of year! In Sweden this is a great excuse to drink all night long to experience a night that otherwise never really gets dark unless you pass out...

Besides drinking, a lot of other things follow this tradition-bound day including “unfortunate” weather conditions in form of rain and a rather cold day.

I do not know if it is the best of ideas to head to England in order to avoid rain on Midsummer’s eve. I do know that it is a great idea to celebrate Midsummer’s eve at the All Tomorrow’s Parties festival in Camber Sands in southern England. Many great bands will play live but for me this will mean that I am able to check one of the band on my “most wanted to catch live” list namely this one.

Breeders – Cannonball is found on the record “Last splash” released in 1993.
