Music festivals

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Sludge, you should get along to MERTHYR RISING, a decent festival that's just up the road, May 25th-27th. Merthyr Rising is a music, arts and ideas festival that celebrates working class culture and resistance at the birthplace of the red flag. That's right up your alley Sludgey However, not too many loud n' shouty bands for you tho. florence Black might be your cup of tea tho'? The type of band you might be able to join in the mosh pit, make devil signs at, or play air guitar along to. You can always pogo along to Foreign Legion. Not sure if there is anyone else there for you to get down n' dirty too.

Here's the link for it:

Steel house in ebbw vale ?

I see Glenn Hughes is headling on the Saturday night. One of my all time favourite rock vocalists. A big soul fan too. Black Star Riders are healing on the Sunday night. Any band with Scott Gorham in, is alright by me. You going along this year Sludgey?

P.S You are sooo right about Shitpop. Was there one decent band to come out of the whole era?
