Subject: RE: Shrewsbury Folk Festival
The lighting for the Oysters and Shoolenifty and the complaints about the sound quality... all sums up my feelings about the wkend. My son, 13, was deafend in his left ear by Mrs. Ackroyd!!! Now this is a teenager who likes his music loud in his bedroom, but he came out of Marquee 1 cos HE said it was too loud.

I have gone right off music and folk since that weekend. I don't want to sing or listen to anything. It's Sunday a week later and I feel no different. Bromyard is in week's time - do I want to go? Only if I don't hear any music. Shot Dogs have a practice on Tues, a gig on 14th in Coventry and another on 28th locally. Do I want to do them? No I do not.
