Hey up lovely forum folks.

Any of you going to Forever Sun festival (Dorchester) this weekend?  If so, you get TWO chances to see me perform! Once with my band The Gravity Drive on Friday on Nobby's Stage at 4.30, and once on Saturday on The Mill Stage at 3.45.

Headline acts include Dodgy, Republica, Space & The Blockheads to name a few.

Let me know if you're going - it would be great to meet another forumite! :)

can't make it to Dorset this weekend unfortunately  ;D

but i am sure one day we will meet.... ;D ;D ;D ;D, on a festival in the future, you will be playing main stage as the closing act, and "steve and a Dutchman" (the artists formerly known as Dutchbin  ;D) will play in the festival tent warming the audience up


but that is a big GIG, TONE!!!!!! congratulations

I do hope one day we will be on the bill together at a festival :D Dunno about headlining it though - I think that's more a job for Dutchbin :D Remember, I only have an acoustic guitar/ piano. You guys got BALLS ;)

Just checked my diary and unfortunately I will be in NZ that weekend. However, I wish you success and will send my applause via Skype.

Allan.

Thanks guys :) Just got back from day 1. Really nice festival. Properly organised, with FREE FOOD FOR PERFORMERS :D

Was so nice to play with a good live sound, and separate engineers for on-stage and front of house sound.

Looking forward to going back tomorrow :)

Will post pics/ vids as soon as I see some uploaded.

Well done. I hope it went well.

Jess, you're priceless! You have the world before you; Dorset to discover, peaches to sample and M&Ms that aren't blue! ;)

Day two was a roaring success, despite almost being cancelled (my stage was open air) due to the rain. Fortunately, they moved me into the cider tent, and I did my gig under cover to some lovely cider-drinking folks.

If anyone's thinking about going next year, I highly recommend it. It's very well organised and had a really nice atmosphere.

And if you get the chance to perform, did I mention the FREE FOOD?! :D

*update on my life* I've just been to Dorset, camping, for the weekend! It's a very nice place, Tone I'm sure you and your band made it even nicer :) At least I can cross that one off my list
