FESTIVALS
Ah yes. There were other festivals outside Devon then. The usual suspects are here, such as Cardiff, Wakefield and a few at Rare Breeds - you know, the year the bogs were a ditch and some guy fell face (or should that be knob?) first into the nettles (good job there were dock leaves handy), not to mention the Skoda in the tent as well as a barbecue .... a bit surreal, if you ask me.
Location / Date | Cardiff BF, October 1996 |
Personnel | Steve Fulcher, Ding Ding, Gazza, Rob Bolt and Skeletor bellowing at Slobby Ray. |
Gen | Slobby Ray is known for dossing out at fests, and he was right on cue at Cardiff! |
Location / Date | Royal Oak, Ledbury August 1996. |
Personnel | Sue, Steve Fulcher, Gazza, Beavis and Fletch. |
Gen | The barstaff seminar from the first, and best, Ledbury festival. |
Location / Date | Rare Breeds BF, Ashford, Kent. June 1996. |
Personnel | Nice Hair, Steve Fulcher, Retford Dave, Russ and Gazza. |
Gen | Russ was desperate enough to want to drink the dregs from the empty cask of Minnis "Beer not Worthy" - although it WAS pretty huge! |
Location / Date | Rare Breeds BF, Ashford, Kent. June 1996. |
Personnel | Retford Dave, Gazza, Nice Hair, Steve Fulcher and Ding Ding |
Gen | A bit of fresh air from the tent! Rare Breeds was a bit of a riot that year, what with a Skoda in the tent... and don't mention the nettles by the bogs .... |
Location / Date | Wakefield BF October 1996 |
Personnel | Skeletor, Gazza, ?, Steve Fulcher, Craig, Ding Ding and Aston. |
Gen | Wakefield was at it's peak in 1996, nowhere will ever be the same. Everyone went and rioted, loads of ticks, superb venue - what more can you ask for? |
Location / Date | York BF, Feb 1995 |
Personnel | Gazza, Loaf, Nigel (Peak basher), Carl Dogshagger (?), Drillbit, Steve Fulcher, Pogo, Aston and Jason |
Gen | A surprise good year for York, which resulted in a mass scooper's attendance! |
Location / Date | Cardiff BF, maybe 1996 |
Personnel | Stewy Kemp, Gazza, Peter Mead, Boy |
Gen | A "Poly" reunion, except for Stewy who I suppose is a basher's reunion... |
