Doors 3.30pm; The Membranes: 4.30pm; Zion Train: 5.30pm; The Wildhearts: 6.25pm; New Model Army: 7.20pm; Levellers: 9pm.

Not sure about the smoking area thing, but it's an open air gig..?

Enjoy guys, I will be with you in spirit.   :-\

Glad you made it, sir!  Enjoy... NMA should be on in about half an hour!  Try not to melt in the heat.  And post a report, I'm keen to see what you thought of The Levs, seeing as you're a casual listener as opposed to a big fan...

Just as long as they don't charge you £22 for four cans of Red Stripe, like they did when I was seeing Madness last Summer...  >:(

Right. Me babbies have just gone off. Walked into the amphitheatre just as they came on. Brilliant show. Levs next, but I think NMA has a large following here. Loads of summer dresses, summer shorts , girls with flowers in their hair and an unusual varied crowd. Saw a young child of about 8 on someones shoulders, smiling her head off. And thats what music should be about. My first festival and well worth it.....and the impending car repair, after the £1200 I just paid for other repairs  :-\. Gotta get home yet. On the plus drove through Cheshire, MR's turf. How the other half live  ;D
