Thread Name: Sidmouth 2005 - CAMPING
Subject: RE: Sidmouth 2005 - CAMPING
Sorry guys, I put this thread out to attempt to interest folk in Stewarding at the camp site - which it is intended will be appropriately covered by licencing and insurance!

Instead it seems to have been hi jacked by - I'm not sure who!

There seem to be many folk taking intractible positions, both on a festival and a personal level, that they are right and they know (better) and also know much more about festival organisation than those attempting to run something in 2005.

I think I give up!

One of my loves of Folk music over the years has been the relaxed, friendly and easy going attitudes of those concerned - this does not imply that jobs were not and are not being done correctly, or that I would ever sanction such!

The threads on Sidmouth - including this one have shown that there are as many (or more) small minded biggots wielding their own particular brand of Anarchy in the folk world as in any other walk of life - I am, sadly, surprised!

My tirade is over I ask Joe - Close this thread please - it has served no purpose!

Sad and disillusioned
