Hi I am beginning to organise a music event for the thursday night up the road from the festival- a nice warm up with quality acts and cheap beer. Any suggestions for a headline / fringe act you would like to see?? Be sensible! not superstars. Not long now... Bob

how about lone pigeon?
his record sounds a bit LIKE the grateful dead
but he'll have the advantage of probably being there - and not dead
also, drop victoria williams a line on her myspace page - if she's there by then, i'd bet she'll play

Don't know when the Fencers will be arriving but they're usually looking for any excuse to play music. They loved the GM last year. www.fencerecords.com

It is in hand... nice venue with room outside, real ale, lager, cider bar, and thinking about a shuttle bus in case you are too drunk to walk back- but it's notfar

of course i've just realised that lone pigeon is now an alien
which means he'll definitely be there
but will sound a bit less like the GD
hey ho

Hi, I'm new, a warm-up thing sounds like a really good idea, will you post on here with more details nearer the time?

Shaping up nicely- three of the acts played at last years Green man on various stages. Nice mix of folky then gets a bit pacier. Just looking for that touch of madness that is required after about 6 pints

Great idea. Walking back along the canal after a few light ales could get a bit wet.

hiya leannejani, Llangynidr takes me back to my mispent yoof! we used to camp out for weeks near an old reservoir and got in trouble poaching trout in the streams, nicking fruit from gardens and hiding from The Plod on top of the cricket pavilion! Lovely village and great pubs too! I used to now a great spot for 'Shrooms in the fields near the river, years ago....
