I'd like to apologise to everyone for the delays and I hope it didn't spoil anyone's enjoyment too much. We were always up against it because of the rain & wind causing untold problems, but a combination of the Zulus being so good that they were given an extra 30 mins and the Inspirals spending ~45 minutes on stage re-wiring their keyboard (unneccessarily as it turned out) meant that we had to run over. Hey, it's a festival... Full respect to the bands who waited so patiently, especially the Plastic Toys who totally rocked the (small buy enthusiatic) house at 5AM as dawn was breaking. Lakeside stage started 90 mins late due to a completely unexpected lack of drumkit. But it finished on time... <br/><br/>We are very tired plus quite despondent as we had the hired marquee robbed from the Custard Factory on Monday morning (THIEVING BASTARDS, I hope you die horribly)<br/><br/>but all in all, people seemed to be enjoying it, and I feel very proud of my crew for making it happen.<br/><br/>The Show Did Go On. <br/><br/>Big thanks to B:INS for collating all this info :) hello, glad you enjoyed it.

We are very tired plus quite despondent as we had the hired marquee robbed from the Custard Factory on Monday morning (THIEVING BASTARDS, I hope you die horribly)

but all in all, people seemed to be enjoying it, and I feel very proud of my crew for making it happen.

The Show Did Go On.
