paul marshall

is the festival king


hoping to get to this

long live the drift collective!


Folkey Dokey :D


I think so...

Agghh, and Spz are clashing with Black Mountain. Gah.


Good line-up, but...

...why is Lightspeed Champion headlining the Folkey Dokey on Saturday? It makes me want to cry that such talentless slop gets elevated beyond reason. Battles had the slot last year and nearly brought the place down, it was f**king amazing!


Folkey Dokey

Thats true on LSC but Archie Bronson before will be amazing as always


Mike Diver DJ set

Saturday night.
Be there or be... dancing to something else.

COMPETITION COMING YOUR WAY TOMORROW.


No Way!

How cool :-)
