SO MANY FESTIES, SO FEW BODIES: Two more nice lookin' events for your diary

I love the festival season, but it gets frustrating because there are so many nice little gatherings about now it just aint practical to do all the ones I want to.

Anyway, here are two that have come across the Iguana radar in the last week; both of them look wicked.

SUNRISE SOLSTICE CELEBRATION: A wicked looking gig at a secret location ‘somewhere in Somerset’ (site revealed when you buy ticket) over the summer solstice. Excellent line up.

WORKHOUSE FESTIVAL: Nice little shindig in a beautiful location in Mid Wales. Zion train, Shooglenifty and Tony McPhee all on the same bill and it’s only £30 [just got MY ticket ;-)]

And…. In my previous listing (which can be found HERE) I did not mention the STRAWBERRY FAIR cos it is only a one dayer with no camping, but SAT has brought it up, so I will give it a plug. It has been around for years and pulls some nice bands in..and it is FREE. Never been myself, but it has a tremendous reputaion.

PS: DAMNED TO PLAY MINI FESTIVAL IN USK
