stevie - there are loads! 15 years, one way, forgotten ground, England my home, sell out, too real, men an tol, believers, hundred years of solitude, leave this town - plus plenty more. Seen them live nearly two dozen times and they have always been brilliant, decent blokes too. Long may they continue.

hrh , a band i had forgot about for years , used to tour with them back in the day. just stuck that album a few years ago and was blown away again. they get a bit of flack these days but i think they are dead on.

festival isnt expensive at all.
really couldnt fault it at all , last years line up surely cant be beat with hawkwind , gong , shane , subhumans , so many great bands.
what really impressed me was the space.
facilities were second to none , hot showers , spotless toilets , no queues.
drink was £2.50 a pint, loads of great cider from local suppliers.again no queues or hassle.
food was delicious and good portions , esp the salsa *****

main thing was going to an event like that and not feeling like a walking pound sign.
best £100 i spent last summer.

£230 for mrs, me & nipper, plus £15 for parking....

It does sound really good though, if i have got enough readies, and tkts still available nearer the time, might go for it, wont cost me much in petrol anyway :-)

should be tickets right up to july anyways, but they do sell out quick
cost us a fortune in petrol , we drove from belfast :)
perfect for the kids , few went last year and i hope to bring mine this year. great to see kids being entertained and not having electric or tv involved.

No idea about the favourite song, but I did meet them very briefly when they were supporting another band called the Corn Dollies.

They had a girl I knew selling their t shirts etc and I was talking to her when the singer and another guy from the Levellers came over. Nice lads, very friendly.

I believe they were named after the Level which is a park area in Brighton where the "wine experts" sometimes compare notes on the latest vintage. I ended up living just up the road from there in Hanover.

That's it for my useless Leveller facts.

I've yet to make it to a Beautiful Days, but would love too -esp' with my kids if possible. They had Squeeze down there a couple of years back, who I also like, and the likes of The Pogues, Supergrass and Alabama 3 have also played in recent times.
