Subject: Review: Alcester Folk Festival needs your help.
Greetings,

As all us Brits know, last years festival season was more of a monsoon than a summer idyll. The wet caused punters to stay away in droves and consequently our finances took a beating. I know that several festivals are in the same boat (geddit?) and, some alas are not going to run in 08 because of it.

We need more cash so we are holding an extra event. It will be at the Grieg Centre in Alcester just like the main festival. The difference is that there will be indoor camping at the sports hall opposite the festival site (with showers and toilets) and there will be limited space for camper-vans and caravans.

Here is a link Alcester Folk Festival

Some of you will notice a change in the link, this is because we are a not for profit ORG. all monies are reinvested in the festival. Of course this year it means that little money will be invested unless we can GET SOME!

That's where you come in. Come to the weekend, buy a ticket, or come and perform for those who buy tickets.

Contact details will be on the new website probably tonight or Tuesday night. Help in any form will be appreciated.

Have a good week.

Green Man
