Rob and I are going! We have fond memories of Bromyard from 2008, which was the first weekend we spent together, shortly after meeting in real life for the first time, after a year-long internet romance! Now we are married and have joined the ranks of Jacqui and Kendall and others who met through Mudcat :)

We always stay at our favourite B&B, which we book up for the next year at the end of the festival, and it's one of our very strong reasons for going back each year. We were actually a bit disappointed last year with the festival itself since the Hop Pole became a private residence instead of the pub on the square that seemed like the hub of the festival in the town. Still looking forward to it though ;)

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?
