Organised confusion reigns

Mabon were the first act on the main stage

Some sunshine at last....

The main stage was inside a tent. I was all prepared for at least a foot of mud!

Large sheets of plywwod had been put down to avoid the school field being converted to Glasto gloop.

In the Bridge House Theatre we saw Kerfuffle with Hannah James on vocals, accordian and piano. Tom Sweeney on bass guitar, Sam Sweeney plays fiddle and percussion while the latest recruit, Dan walsh played guitar.

On the mixing desk...

Next on stage was Harriett Bartlett

We first saw Harriett at the Warwick Folk Club 18 months ago.

There were several hippie clothing vendors... Hmmmm.

Back on the main stage was Malinky. A Scots/Irish five piece band.

The large area of grass at the front stayed empty of dancers...

Preparations for the Seth Lakeman band were progressing and suddenly there was a rush to the front.....get in there...

...so I found myself standing right next to the stage...

I tried several different techniques to capture an image....

...with no flash but you had to be very lucky to catch no movement....

...another no flash photo...

with flash @ 1/60th second

using fill-in flash to freeze the movement but still get some of the colourful lights...

no flash again but using the telephoto lens...

no flash - look at that hand moving...

with flash again

My best shot...Seth Lakeman in full flow...

A BRILLIANT set. Thankyou. Oh and my daughter got the set list...
