Latitude Festival day two (Saturday July 18) has awoken to hot sunshine, and kicked off with bands such as Wildbirds and Peacedrums, Band of Skulls , and St Vincent.

Pop icon Grace Jones is tonight’s Obelisk Arena headliner, while Doves, White Lies and Patrick Wolf also play the outdoor stage.

Jason Pierce and Spiritualized will be closing the Uncut Arena, after a jam-packed day which includes a rare appearance by Mika, twee indie folk Camera Obscuraand Scott Matthews also playing.

Here, in case you missed ’em, are Friday’s highlights.

Plus there’s more funny snippets at overheard conversations part 2 – which includes the gem “Wait for me while I go to the loo. You can’t dance to the Pet Shop Boys with a full colon.”
