i find it interesting that each of our local town festivals (sweeps, broadstairs, faversham) are being blamed for the english problem of drunken youths on the streets (although i saw none at faversham this year). surely the problem is not a festival issue, but is much broader and although the festivals work with the police to prevent issues, the streets in general need cleaning up.

i had a great time at faversham this year although agree that i personally would love to see more folk music. shall we get back to discussing how this could happen?
