I am going again. Bit worried about the current weather forecast though. It was advertised in this weekend's newspaper so I'm wondering if ticket sales are down on the usual..Without doubt The best 3 days chill out of the year ....everbody is so happy and laid back.. |

A few years ago hubby was sat five feet away from Robert plant! So chilled, no one bothered him, no one asked for his autograph. He was like everyone else there...just a guy there for the music and the atmosphere ....and oh lord, the food trailers ! Yes it’s a tad pricey but they have to pay stupid prices to get a pitch.... |

I tossed a coin between Cropredy and Wilderness and Wilderness won this year! But Wildwood Kin are fabulous, don't miss them - I've seen them at a couple of festivals and stumbled across them at Glasto without even realising they were there!! |

I know exactly what you mean. Dave Pegg was standing next to me last year taking in the music on the Saturday morning in the pouring rain. A few people shook his hand and thanked him for the festival as always but he was just left to enjoy the act on stage. |

"Never heard of Wildwood Kin until recently but having first sampled them via Spotify have become addicted..."
Yeah they are something different. Looking forward to Gogol Bordello too. And Fairport's always the highlight for me. |

"Also a massive Fairport fan but sometimes I feel a bit flat for the Saturday evening set. Not sure why but prefer Cropredy during the day somehow...."
Last years was a real test of my strength to stay there during that rain but somehow survived until meet on the ledge! |

"Not too bad here.... but then we are in a country pub...."
 It was a good weekend apart from the weather, and Saturday evening was really good, Fairport dug out a few oldies (Not difficult for them!) The wind meant that some of the traders had to take down their signs and the PA scrims were taken down on Friday afternoon but it had all calmed down by early evening. |

It wasn't sold out but that meant it was back to how it used to be, the sold-out years with big headliners like Marillion have been too crowded and not as chilled. |

It was great, The Waterboys, RT, Caravan and Martin Barre were fabulous, Zal was very loud indeed - METAL!! - and Fairport were brilliant, a nice Saturday set that paid homage to Maart. |

I was wandering around wearing my daughter's fursuit during Zal's set, seemed appropriate to enjoy them while dressed as an angry German Shepherd |
