Aftermath of Subcity at the West End Festival

Subcity Stage in Lilybank Gardens

Once again, Subcity managed to not only justify the hype, but unite children, dogs and clubbers alike with their stage at last Sunday's West End Festival. Lilybank Gardens was transformed into a sweaty, throbbing mass, thanks to the hundreds of people who turned up to enjoy the station's finest DJ talent, a six-pack and some sunshine. Public appreciation of the day has been pouring in, so a massive thanks to everyone who turned up and shook that ass to help make it into the banging success it was.

See the day in pictures on Facebook here.

Or Listen Again to the hottest stage at the festival, in order of appearance:

Felonious Munk // Bogey Music
Rock Island Line // Vegas! // OOFT
Argonaut Sounds // Matt Lygate

Special thanks to Philip Zambonini and to Graham Hendry at Tannoy for the best sounding PA at the festival.
