We hope you enjoy listening to some of the bands who performed
at Februarys event but if not you can simply press the stop
button!
The interest in the first two festivals was incredible!
But sadly only from Bands wanting to play!

So this years event is TOTALLY DIFFERENT!!

If every member of every band turns up, we will have a FULL HOUSE.

It's therefore called the BLUESMAN FESTIVAL!!!
The Details!

Q: Will we get paid?
A: In short NO! but read on.

Q: What about expenses?
A: We will pay £50 fuel expenses per band.

Q: If we stay the full weekend, how much will accommodation cost?
A: We will accommodate ALL band members and families for £12.50 per person per night.

Q: What about food?
A: We will provide breakfast (daily till 12noon) and issue tokens for our Burger Bar (3pm - 7pm daily).

Q: What about Booze?
A: The "Purple Room" will be a complimentary bar for all musicians.

Q: Can we record the gig?
A: A full audio visual DVD will be available FREE to all bands / performers (on the mighty Box stage only).

Q: What about future gigs?
A: All bands who play the festival will be offered a fully paid gig during 2012.

To Summarise

The venue will be PACKED with like miinded musos, accommodation is very very reasonable and we will feed the performers
and give you plenty of "gargle" to wash it down. You will each leave the venue with a complimentary (studio quality) DVD
of your session and get a contribution to travel expenses. We will also guarantee a paying gig for all bands during 2012.

As an offshoot, lots of new liasons and relationships will be made.....God only knows where that will lead!
