Subject: RE: Glasson Maritime Weekend - Easter 08
In my opinion,Glasson 2008 was an improvement on 2007.
From a performers point of view the Village hall was a good venue,the function room at the Stork inn was also good,I played two concerts there which were well attended.,and enjoyable.
The Village hall could be improved by providing more comfortable chairs.
marquees/tents are in my opinion never enjoyable be they at Towersey/ Bromyard or Glasson,.
on one or two occasions[for different reasons] I have not enjoyed the noisy pubs in Lancaster either.
It is very difficult for organisers to get everything right about a festival,and at every festival there will always be some venues that are preferable to others,and providing that performers get a fair share of the good venues as well as the not so good,we have to take the rough with the smooth.
I am sure that if the organisers had better alternatives to the marquees they would be used.
I would like to thank the organisers for running this years festival and wish them every success if they continue to run this festival.http://www.dickmiles.com
