Is anybody going to Bromyard Folk Festival?

Lineup looks OK,weather looks OK and there's Wye Valley to drink in the Beer Tent.

What's not to like!!!!

I've been looking at the 1976 programme and the guest list looks a bit different to today.

There were nine acts on,Dave Burland,Fred Jordan,Silly Wizard,Bill Caddick,Geoff & Pennie Harris,Bob Williamson,Keith Chandler,Jim Mageean and Mr.Gladstone's Bag.

The Bushwackers Band were booked but were replaced quite late on by June Tabor.

Two dance bands were appearing,the Allemanders and Woodley Yeoman with callers Gerry Phelps,Walt Tingle Tex Blomfield and Hugh Rippon.

Were any current Mudcatters,apart from me,there and what memories does anyone have,good bad or indifferent?
