C Stuart Cook Great British Folk Festival (48) RE: Great British Folk Festival 04 Dec 13


Reading back through the comments I don't think anyone does have any gripes overall. Mine are very specific. Whilst I myself have aired specific criticisms I still say it was a good do, but as a paying punter I feel I don't overstep the mark by airing them.

It was billed as the Great British FF. I'm taking that the "Great" was supposed to imply some sort of level. In my paying punters opinion I felt that some of the booked acts were there on false premise. Maybe their agents had done a good job, maybe the organisers are not that savvy on what they should be booking or even too adventurous.

I didn't say before but possibly Scotland was a bit under represented. That may be distance and availability.

I missed any singaround sessions in the bar unfortunately. I didn't know about them.

My single biggest disappointment is not realising there was steamed sponge puddings and custard at the end of the food bar until Sunday night. I'll know next year.
