Hey all you bloggers out there!

This is my first time blogging so bear with me. I’m Ashley Noland, I am 22 years old and one of the five grand prize winners of the Virgin Mobile Festival giveaway and I’d like to start by thanking everyone at MuchMusic and Virgin Mobile for being so incredibly awesome. I tell you a little bit about myself - I’m a previous student of Ryerson University where I took two years of Geographic Anaylsis and I’m in the process of changing my major. I’m accompanied by Brittany Harris my little cuz, who I like to refer to as ‘Hollywood’, for her killer style and wicked shades she always rocks.

After a well-rested night at the Westin Harbour Castle - the lovely hotel which Much and Virgin put us up at for the next three days - we arrived here at the Virgin Festival pumped and ready to see all the wicked bands lined up and we were not disappointed. The first band we caught was one I had never heard of, but found to be killer was Ill Scarlett. One of the best aspects of the festival has been getting to experience bands that I have never known before and being gladly surprised. I’m now a proud fan of Ill Scarlett and Phoenix, who rocked my world.

Personal favourites are The Raconteurs, The Strokes, Muse, and my soon-to-be boyfriend Sam Roberts, who I’m stoked to see tomorrow. It’s getting fierce out there now as The Dears take the stage, everyone is patiently awaiting Gnarls Barkley to performe after Muse. However the highlight of my evening will be to watch those good old Canadian Boys and one of the best bands alive - Alexisonfire. So I better jam if I want to catch all those great tunes. I will talk to you peeps later. So take care everyone and I will ttyl!
