Anyone doing any festivals this year?

I'm going to Knockengorroch for the May Bank Holiday weekend. Straight from school, 200mile drive, weekend of mayhem, frost bite, midge bites and sunburn, great music then drive home and relax.

Solfest is a possibility as is Sedbergh

Normally do Isle of Wight festival, but opted out this year.
Really want to get a ticket to Bestival due to the line-up.. Public Enemy and Big Audio Dynamite to name but a few.

Just the one day Splendour in Nottingham. Scissor Sisters supported by Blondie. Mrs VC is going for Scissor sisters, and being a gentleman of a certain age, I'm going to see Ms Harry.

My own! I'm having a mini festival to celebrate my 40th birthday otherwise it will be Off the Tracks in September.

Womad. For the first time in 20 years!

Off the Tracks in September.

It would be worth it if only to see the Lancashire Hotpots

Well, there's the BluesFest in London and I will try for Al Di Meola in June and also sort out a date in July with Troy Andrews aka 'Trombone Shorty' as part of this festival, in Fulham.

As the video says - go to 14:00 for a pretty good solo! Better still, enjoy the lot.

I have a dream to ride up to one, but I reckon I'd either never get there or get my bike pinched on arrival

 

[Aperitif]

Good grief - Al Di Meola? There's a name from the past! I'm sure I have some vinyl by him somewhere ...

Cheeky sod. I'm a name from the past too!

Orkney in two weeks time with (hopefully) warmer sleeping bag than last year.

 

[longers]

We're being asked to go to Solfest, bought a tent this morning. Just in case. Old one broken.
