As one who was in the audience, I think it's fair to say that if there were any problems with Bellowhead's sound, they were in the transmission mix rather than in the auditorium. They certainly didn't look or sound like rabbits in the headlights from where I was sitting, and indeed had had a good chance to warm up in the afternoon, playing for maybe a thousand people at the bandstand in Kensington Gardens...those were a mix of folkies and non-folkies, and Bellowhead blew them away.

I thought they were having the time of their lives, actually.

Anyway, it was a good day for folk, I think.
