if that's not enough you can also ride on the steam trains.
oh, and there are a couple of fortuna pop! bands playing - milky wimpshake and airport girl. i should probably mention that.
Hot off the press
A 22 year old photo. Nice. Only Gedge remains.
Choo choooooo!
I can not recommend this festival highly enough. I went last year and it was brilliant, the perfect antidote to queueing for hours for beer tokens and wading through acres of mud for rancid food. There was cheap ale, friendly railway staff serving up home-made chips and snacks, free rides on the steam train, sparkling clean camping facilities (with plugs!) and - most importantly - lots and lots of fab new bands. Plus it's only £45 - what more could you ask for? I already can't wait to see the boy Gedge do his stuff this year- I'm holding out for a Gedge/Hayman duo!
Lovely festival!
This was such a nice, laid back festival last year and the steam train rides were the icing on the cake! :-)
last year
was amazing. Just perfect really. The church stage is amazingly lovely and there were so many great bands (Bearsuit, The Bobby McGees, The Parallelograms, Arthur & Martha, Wake The President, etc).
This year... Comet Gain. Fucking hell. I'm there. Literally. Ticket bought.
Theres a bouncy castle!
and bands in the church like boney said above and all the volunteers at the railway are ridulousy friendly and excited and really happy that people have come to the festival and the sun shined for 2 days and they have real toilets with flushes and toilet paper and everyone should go.
this
is ace. everybody go go.
eeeeeee!
AND ballboy are playing! I haven't seen them in aaaaaaaaages.
red pony clock, retro spankees, the deirdres, pocketbooks.. and helen love bubblegum killer dj's... yowza!
i'm wetting myself about milky wimpshake and comet gain too.
and trains! and lots of lovely booze and all the nice people.
Best. Fest. Ever. Est.
