Oh Gawd - not Bellowhead AGAIN. They were there in 2008. Sorry - can't stand 'em. Love the individual musicians (most of them, anyway) - but the band just sounds an unholy mess to me, and I have tried to like them! Still - Towersey is Towersey - so I will be there.

Nah Annie - I've been extremely excited for weeks too... but my busy schedule means forums get neglected, sadly. Yes, I will be helping to keep the FDH crew in order again  No inside information at the moment, I'm afraid...

The disappointing thing is it won't be Afro Celts because they will be at Shrewsbury

Still - Towersey is Towersey - so I will be there. i think they also headlined the year before....i've overloaded on seeing um so might see something different instead....obviously if chris wood/andy cutting are doing their thing i'm there instead! also a friend of my best mates playing-Nancy Wallace...superb female vocalist...yeah i know there's 10 to the dozen of singers with acoustics out there at the mo but this lady is seriously good...one of those acts you'll hopefully come away from thinking you've just discovered a hidden gem.

Nancy Wallace is really wonderful, have seen her twice now and have her CD. It's so great that she's booked at a proper folk festival.

Do you think a TAW/BYF/melodeon.net squeeze orientated session might be in order too?! (Obviously we shall have to check that Andy Cutting is not around when we start up...)
