For this show, and for the rest of August, we are going to have some festival flashbacks. We are to take you on a journey back in time and share some personal memories from four decades of festival frolics.
From the western fringes of Wales, to the eastern fringes of east Anglia.
There will be stories from big commercial events, but it will be mostly from grassroots events, with only a few hundred in attendance.
Festivals are a bit like elephants, difficult to describe, but you know one when you see it. Hopefully, over the next few weeks we will peice together what makes festivals so appealing.
This week we had tales from Inspirali, Megadog Beach Festival, Surplus, Sonic Rock Solstice, Skanival, Workhouse, Sheep Music, Seven Revels, Forest Fair, Landed, GLC Party in Brockwell Park and more.
