By Another summer, another mad midnight drive from one show to another…. Festival gigs are always a bit wafty on exactly when you’re playing at the point of booking, so tend to go in the calendar as a weekend pencilling, leading to some massive misbookings on my part. Worst ever was Port Eliot in Cornwall on Friday night, followed by an Essex wedding on Saturday lunch – not easy Essex, either, field in the middle of nowhere Essex.
This wasn’t too bad, being the Midlands to Red Rooster Festival with the Jolenes, followed by Ugly Chief in Ipswich. Many thanks to Joe for chauffering, and the little girl for not kicking up too much of a fuss. Red Rooster is a FUN festival, I highly recommend it. Super friendly, and really good programming.
