Can only remember ever seeing one act there (although there's probably been others).

Many moons ago on a Thursday - Space Ritual - Nick Turner's version of Hawkwind.

Still one of my all time favourite Glastonbury gigs.

You reminded me that I saw Space Ritual at Wickerman 2005. Rescued from a memory hole 😂

The penny only dropped with me last year despite having gone a number,  that there were 2 Bandstands

Old time sailors for a drunken sea shanty party

They've been at my local festival, Farmer Phil's the last two years and are playing in a local pub next week.  Great fun - they hand out newspapers with all the lyrics so you can join in!

I've updated the big playlist to include Croissant Neuf.  The CN artists are in order toward the middle of the list, after Silver Hayes.

 

Awesome, Much appreciated, time for some discovery, think I only know six of the them. Gaz, Gabrielle, Steve, Henge, Showhawks and Mik.

Really hope I can get to ROT90s and Showhawk. Love both. Croissant Neuf is a great (but tiny) venue. Mad Dog McCrae was awesome in 2019. Real highlight.

Yeah don't think I'll make it into they're as it'll be rammed, that's why I like watching Doreen Doreen for some fun entertainment as it's outside on the summer house stage

I really recommend Gaz Brookfield. His song and it’s accompanying video, be the bigger man, about bullying should be in the national curriculum for all schools . 

Regularly makes me cry, last time was at Bearded Theory last year.  And the video not only makes me cry but sends tingles down my spine.

His diabetes blues song is another great tune.

“ I can’t drink cider any more, what’s a West Country boy going to do”!

I can't remember the name, but there was a great song he did last year made up of things people say to him when they find out he's a musician.  Hmm I think I feel a Gaz day coming on for tomorrow!

I first saw Doreen Doreen about 30 years ago, they are like a perpetual triggers broom band in Bristol 🙂 I think I know more people who have been in the band than are currently in the band 🙂

 

but amazing fun though 🙂

Yes thanks.  We were thinking of going but have found out that Shrewsbury's Loop Festival is on the same day - the first one was last year and it was great - loads of pubs putting on live music all afternoon and evening.  And we can get home afterwards much easier, so we're going to go for that rather than camping at BC this year.  Are you going to BC?
