00:00 Okay, here with Sani from Wigfield. Sani, great set. How does it feel to be in Elgin at McMurray?
00:06 Ever since I got here yesterday, we've been driving. I'm here with some friends and we've been driving around, you know, to the seaside and it's just...
00:14 I even said to them I would live here, like, completely. So if I win the lottery, I'm gonna buy a castle here.
00:21 You're gonna buy a castle in Murray. Is that your... that's your plan if you win the lottery?
00:26 Yeah, that's my plan.
00:29 How did you find the crowd? Because people always say Scottish fans are great. Didn't you enjoy playing for Scottish fans?
00:34 Well, the fact is that I was looking out and I had little... it's like three generations and you have like little kids singing my songs.
00:42 Well, not the clubby ones, but Saturday Night and Sexy Eyes and...
00:46 It's just amazing to see that my generation and their kids and even their kids because I'm obviously not that young anymore.
00:54 But it was just...
00:56 It's just the energy that I got from the crowd and way back people were just jamming. That was crazy.
01:03 It's very much a family festival. As you said, lots of generations. Something for everyone is what the organiser Andy always tells us.
01:11 Did you get that vibe?
01:12 Oh, completely and I had to be careful because one of my songs had the F word in it.
01:16 I just went...
01:18 Great. So have you got plans to come back to this part of the world at some point in the future?
01:24 Well, I mean, I'm not sure. I think the closest thing...
01:29 I might do Glasgow. I can't remember because I'm doing lots of touring this summer, but I think maybe we have to do Glasgow. I'm not sure.
01:38 Like my friends always laugh at me. He asked me like, "Where are you going next week?" I don't know.
01:45 I don't care.
01:47 But if there was a possibility, it might be something you would like to do potentially.
01:51 I would definitely come back any time here because people think, "Oh yeah, it's amazing being on stage."
01:58 Some festivals are different. They're hardcore and people are very tipsy and throw things.
02:09 It depends where you go. And then some places you go, people just stand there.
02:15 But you didn't get that feeling tonight. Everybody was well involved with the music.
02:19 I'm going to sleep like a baby. I really had the best time.
02:24 That's fantastic. Thanks a lot for your time there.
02:28 Thank you so much.
