Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Fliss Date: 17 Aug 04 - 04:40 PM Soz will be in Ireland. WOuld love to go to Bridgnorth again as its only down the road from me (8 miles, but it always clashes with the Fleadh. Have a great time all that go.... and remember its the Jackfield festival the following weekend. Down river from Ironbridge. Top of bill is Froggie... Raymond Froggatt. Nice Mr Bill Caddick and his RIverbillies and a lot of others. I will definitely be there, plus several friends who are camping on my livingroom floor.Id better give the dog some charcoal bikkies before they arrive. cheers fliss |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Abuwood Date: 18 Aug 04 - 12:50 PM Hope to make the best mixed session over the Bridge with Ian & Fi also they tell me Oysterband are playing in the street.. See you there if we recover from Whitby! |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Moonunit Date: 20 Aug 04 - 09:33 AM I'll ditto that Abuwood... Ian and Fi are not only super-nice, but they run an excellent session. I believe they will be located at the Holyhead throughout most of the festival. Huroo for them! Bridgnorth Folk Festival |

Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Chris Green Date: 23 Aug 04 - 11:13 AM On the subject of fine weather, I should point out that moonunit went to Boscastle on holiday last week and look what happened within an hour of her arrival! I shall be pitching my tent in High Town! |

Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Moonunit Date: 24 Aug 04 - 05:41 PM Um, I do seem to have a freakish ability to make places previously impervious to water-based disaster, flood like never before. Methinks High Town may not be safe. Reckon I could start charging holiday destinations to avoid them. Who'll start me at £50 (I'll even NOT bring my bombarde – now there's a bargain...) |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Chris Green Date: 25 Aug 04 - 12:14 PM The best thing that could happen to your bombarde is a flood! |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: GUEST,briggfoot-in-cov Date: 25 Aug 04 - 03:03 PM see you there folks! (scribbling down session times and venues ) andy |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: GUEST Date: 25 Aug 04 - 06:59 PM Its a bloody awlful festival,from experience |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: the lemonade lady Date: 25 Aug 04 - 07:19 PM Oh no it's not! #8-) |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: pdcawley Date: 31 Aug 04 - 04:47 AM Seconded. 'twas jolly good fun. Modulo the BBC. |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: the lemonade lady Date: 31 Aug 04 - 09:50 AM Has anyone noticed the weather today (Tues)Bloody sunny and warm isn't it! If this is God's idea of a joke, it's in very bad taste. I sold 200 cups of lemonades less than last year, because it was cold, wet and very windy. Food was good tho' wasn't it. Sal |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: pdcawley Date: 31 Aug 04 - 05:59 PM Top notch. So was the lemonade. |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Folkie Date: 01 Sep 04 - 08:21 AM My only complaint was that Cloudstreet weren't on more often! They were the highlight of the festival. |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: el_punkoid_nouveau Date: 01 Sep 04 - 01:05 PM My first Bridgnorth - I only went for the Sunday, but thoroughly enjoyed the sessions in the Old Castle. Next time, I'll try to spread myself a bit... |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: the lemonade lady Date: 02 Sep 04 - 12:41 PM Oh thank you, pdcawley, that's very nice of you to say so. You didn't sign my guest book did you? Are you going to Bromyard? You can sign it there. Sal |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Moses Date: 03 Sep 04 - 09:18 AM Why were Cloudstreet not in the main Marquee or Sabrina Hall this year?? They've been booked for next year I'm told. Let's have them out of the overcrowded pubs and on to the main stage where we can all get a chance to hear them and breath at the same time! Mostly enjoyed a good balance of music, though too many folk-rock bands for my personal taste. Food (Maureen and Eddie's Caribbean cuisine always a "must") delicious and great lemonade, Mrs Lemon. Looking forward to next year |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: pdcawley Date: 05 Sep 04 - 01:00 PM Ms Lemon. I did sign your guest book. But I didn't sign it as pdcawley. Bromyard looks unlikely. |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: Folkie Date: 07 Sep 04 - 08:19 AM Yes I agree there were far too many folk-rock bands (more rock than folk usually). Generally everything I went to in the marquee was much too loud and the lighting was horribly migraine inducing. Sabrina Hall was much more to my taste even though it was so hot. I was terribly disappointed with the Damien Barber Roadshow. Damien is a fine singer and Bryony an excellent fiddle player but I couldn't hear the words of the songs and I couldn't hear the box player because of the horrid loud drums. |
Subject: RE: Bridgnorth FF 27th -30th Aug 2004 From: the lemonade lady Date: 08 Sep 04 - 04:07 PM Thank you Moses for your compliments. I wasn't very happy with the Caribbean caterers because they switched on the very noisy generator at 8am and didn't switch it off until 2.30am. We managed to sort out the generator noise at Warwick so please, Alan and Sandra, can we have less engine and more music to the caterers/stall holders ears? Sal |
