a few years ago the ireallylovemusic<\/u> clan were fortunate enough to partake in the oxfordshire based festival a few years back.<\/p>\n
while the line up wasn’t particularly of interest (robert plant<\/strong> doing his led zeppelin<\/strong> crowd pleasing gubbins, and deacon blue<\/strong>), the experience was very pleasant.<\/p>\n so much so, that when i heard that there is a chance that the festival allows me and mine back in this year i was rather keen.<\/p>\n again the line up isn’t the most hip and current, but for a relaxed radio 2 family friendly outing, this one is a cracking example of how to do a festival.<\/p>\n the line up includes : <\/p>\n scouting for girls, the damned, sharleen spiteri, teddy thompson, magic numbers, shortwave set, dodgy, i am kloot, the boy least likely to, sugababes, the pretenders, mary coughlan, eddi reader imelda may<\/p>\n clearly for me, the real pull is to check out the new material by the boy least likely to<\/strong>, and jump around to the classics by the damned<\/strong>, but i’m sure i would end up singing along to the texas<\/strong> hits (c’mon, you just know that sharleen is going to pop a couple of those in her set), as walking between the various stages is a mere few minutes as opposed to the 3 mile hike at some of the larger set ups.<\/p>\n for the weekend ticket the cost is £90 for adults, £45 for under 16s, and there is a chance that if you are quick, and you have kids aged 12 and under, they may get in free.<\/p>\n
