29 Jul 08 - 11:41 AM (#2400375) Subject: EVOLVE Festival From: SunrayFC This new Festival had quite a good start. The weather was kind, the surroundings superb, the infrastructure very sound and the lineup wasn't bad for a start-up Festival. It augers well for the future, and the Sunray Folk Club will continue to support and promote it. |

Maybe the UK festival scene is already saturated? Because at £30 for a two day season ticket, it wasn't too expensive. "Headlining will be Show of Hands with Miranda Sykes plus other artists to include Lou Rhodes, Megson, Kerfuffle, 3 Daft monkeys, Tim Van Eyken... All audience areas will be under cover of marquees." says the publicity. Maybe it's a lesson that when starting a new festival it's better to live within your means. I've been to three start up festivals in the last couple of years and they were all terrific: and have come back in following years and grown organically. -- Hamish |
