Thread Name: Raising Money to Save Sidmouth Festival
Subject: RE: Raising Money to Save Sidmouth Festival
If Sidmouth council can't be bothered, there must be a reason. I
live in Nuremberg, in Germany, which hosts every year the biggest
folk festival in the world, 16 stages over three days, and all for
free.
Over 100 acts from all over the world, invited and sponsored by
the city of Nuremberg, this year more than 200,000 attended.
Work it out for youself.
Cheers, Cooksey.
P.S. Lizzie in Sidmouth, Show of Hands were a big hit three years
ago, I played with them, together with Sean Cannon to a huge crowd.
