From: Dave the Gnome I recently started a thread about the T in the Park rock festival in Kinross and was pleasantly surprised to find there was a ceilidh tent there. Hoping to get to V2001 at Weston Park in a couple of weeks. Anyone know if there is anything similar there? Thinking about it - what a great idea! You know, like a Creché for all us old folkies taking teenage daughters to festivals! Anyone fancy joining me in trying for a lottery grant for next years season??? ;-) Back to the serious - any other Mudcatters there? Cheers Dave the Gnome |

Red Hot Chili Peppers Don't know Powderfinger or Idlewild but love Placebo, Gray and the 'Peppers. Neil Finn was good with Crowded house - don't know him on his own and what I have seen of the Foo Fighters looks good. On reflection. Sod the folk music. Rock On! Now where's that bong.....;-) Cheers DtG |

This from BBC online: Big Brother's Dean's festival date Former Big Brother contestant Dean O'Loughlin has been signed up to play at the V2001 music festival in Chelmsford, Essex. Dean - who showed off his guitar skills during his nine weeks on the Channel 4 show - will play at the two-day event on 18 August. Also included on the V2001 bill are Texas, Coldplay, Kylie Minogue, Toploader, The Charlatans, David Gray - and many more.
Dean - who made it into the final three on the reality TV show - once had a recording deal with his band L Kage but now plays in an act called Phoney. [of course we know Dave is only going to see Kylie- she's the right height!*BG* |
