Best I can offer I'm afraid, I'd guess 9 or 9.30 coz I don't think they can over run their times much at the site........

That's fine thanks.  Just trying to work out how late we can get there as we'll have our little boy with us.  Really hoping he'll let us both watch them...!

Had my little tribe with us at Rock n Bike last year. Youngest loved it, he was 4. Took him down the front on my shoulders and second row vantage point was to his liking in front of Marshall. Middle un was 9 and a kindly Yorkshirebird's Otherhalf assisted and got him next to us at tyhe front. To equal effect. =)
Brilliant weekend, I'm hoping fer the same this weekend. Tho' I'm minus the young uns this time, our lass is home n child minding duties while get spannered! ::)

It's good when they enjoy it too!  Trouble is, our little one is a determined little 2 and a half year old and sometimes has different ideas about what we should be doing, plus it'll be past his bed time.  We very rarely get to go anywhere together since he arrived, so I'm hoping it'll be ok!

I knew there was a list, but Google failed me dismally........  :-X
I think I've even commented on missing ACID Drop on a listing somewhere......

I'm glad you reminded me who I was taking! I knew I had promised a ride to some folk but I couldn't remember who!

We bought full w/end tickets but think we might just go Sunday now. Friday doesnt look much and other friends not now going, Sat is Bilston so looking like just Sunday.

setlist, reports, pics from Strummercamp anyone? Hope it didn't rain there as much as it did here last night... and that the band managed to find enough serviceable kit

Well it was raining most of the day, but was pleasently surprised that all the music was under cover.

The band had managed to borrow bits of kit from other bands and in true "ragged crew" tradition the show did go on.  Things got even tougher when a leak in the roof above the keyboard took that out during the sound check, much to Dean's annoyance. So most of the set was played as four piece - which evidently meant last minute changes to the setlist as they were playing. A tough start for Ceri's second gig...

But resilience and never say die won through and I for one thought it was a cracking gig. The bastard van thieves were in everyone's mind for Vengeance and The Hunt, which added even more emotion.

I can never remember a setlist the next day, but songs played included (not necessarily in this order)...:

GMO
NOTHING DIES EASY
VENGEANCE
TIAGD
THE HUNT
FRIGHTENED
ARCHWAY TOWERS
HCTW
BETTER THAN THEM
STUPID QUESTIONS
VAGABONDS
WWTG

----------

GREEN AND GREY

------------------------
All in all a nice little festival, run by volunteers and with a chilled atmosphere.
Also enjoyed: Stand Out Riot, Dirty North, Neck.
