Hey PeteBox, I seriously seriously hope you read this!
I've been a massive fan of beatbox for a couple of years now so made sure I got me and my mates along to see you at Leeds. The moment at where you got everyone to stand up and come down the front was my best festival moment and your set totally made the festival!!
