I thought that the Festival was good, but as with all things it had its teething problems. I think there was a lot of people making comparisions with Bridgenorth and I heard one couple winge all weekend in the tent next door about this and that...perhaps if they didn't winge all the time they may have had a good time!

Good points: Having the right to park your vehicle next to your tent..after visting other festivals this was amazing. No lugging of tents etc and also a place to store any valuables! Yes people did take up a lot of space, so maybe an idea to restrict size of tents/caravans.
Good line up and I liked the fact I could take photographs at the side of the stage, and also listen to some of the music without the noise of the bass.
Showers: They were excellent at the Quarry-they were clean and hardly any queues.
Bad points:
Not enough entertainment throughout the day and the first day/last day of the festival. Some people do like to stay up late and a late area would have been nice. It is the earliest I have been in bed at a festival..although I did get a good nights sleep.
Would have been nice if the toilets had been kept cleaned on the last night for those who stayed till Tuesday morning.
Not enough beer-less said on that the better
More food/craft stalls although you can walk into town from the site.
The fact that bands could be heard behind stage tuning up/practicing before appearing on stage. This spoilt a lot performances-Vin Garbutt/Keith Donnelly's were ones that I remember.
Drum workshops being too close to the main marquee and tents-I love the workshops but not early on a sunday morn and whilst I am listening to performances in the main marquee.
Highlights: Julie Matthews and Chris While-wonderful!
The Badgers- I know the name change but what the hell!
Eliza Carthy-I have some fantastic photographs of her.

Thanks for the festival though, I will return back to my home town for this one...was good to see my old haunts!
