Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Here's a link if you want to see what Whimwise are like live. I predict that they will be included in the archives at some time in the future. They're fairly new on the scene I think, but very very prog. What do you think?

I apologise to Andrew and the Summer's End festival for non-attendance, partly 'cos I have too much on at home, but principally owing to an accute cash shortage... I have my MOT, Winter Service and Road Tax due this month, and Car Insurance and Breakdown cover due in 4 weeks time...
 Let's put it like this, no-one's going to marry me for my money, any time soon....
 Anyway, I hope the event is going/ has gone well, and you never know...next year??

You missed a cracking show Jared, PoS, Tinyfish, Touchstone, Threshold and Whimwise were all stunning. Hope to see you there next year. |

Just a quick note to say that we still have some Summers End 2007 Festival T-shirts left if anyone wants one. This years shirts are superb quality, in black cotton with yellow and orange design, and we still have Large and Extra Large (plus one ladies medium if you’re quick!) available. This years festival has yet to break even, so any help with bridging the gap would be much appreciated, and will contribute towards the viability of the festival going into 2008 and beyond. If you were there and didn’t get around to buying a T-shirt or weren’t there and would like to support the festival, then please go to: http://www.sonicbond.com/product.asp?P_ID=903&PT_ID= or make a Paypal payment of £15 to [email protected] and we’ll send you one by return! Best wishes Stephen and Huw |
