I went there one afternoon Captain Beefheart was singing Jeremy Beadle was one of the organisers I just walked in nobody asked me for a ticket. having said that it was up turt taters in mud. the local shopkeepers wellied the prices up on basics like milk etc I never shopped with them again.

Beefheart never performed in the afternoon; he played early Sunday morning...about 2.30 am...
Great weekend...
Kinks were actually quite good....
