This is so good to hear. There's a lot of criticism about the festival which all too frequently revolves around the issue of who's booked and who isn't. The fact is that the management, love 'em or hate 'em, have never lost sight of the fact that it's a 'folk' week! Mind you, Liz and I got an actual soundcheck at the Metropole thanks to two very professional young chaps. Now that shows WFW can change! :-)
