    Anybody here ever been to the Hop Farm Music Festival in Kent?

    Not been myself Rita, have friends who went in 2008 I think it was, to see Neil Young and had a blast, but a subsequent trip last year wasn't so highly regarded...

    Saturday line up - Morrisey, Lou Reed, Iggy & the Stooges, Patti Smith, Newton Faulkner... F*** me!
  • dottlesdottles Posts: 9,186
    Yeah, they seem to get good line ups and it is a 'grass roots' fest, no sponsorship and alike. I think it's only been running a few years so to get the names they do, they must have some balls.

    My friend who went last year said the organisation was hit and miss, and Bob Dylan was defo in the twilight of his career performances...

    I shall be at the Foos that Saturday (yet to arrange anything for that yet - eeps!)

    :D I just sent you a text!
    Anyhoo, have a fab and safe trip - give my love to Eddie when you see him!
    You'll be fine on the flights, load up your ipod, settle down with the inflight movies and see what inflight free booze there is! :D:D

    That isn't a bad line-up at all. Not sure about Morrissey headlining over Lou Reed, Iggy and Patti Smith though.

    Mixed feedback from last years festival from what I can gather - check out the forums aat www.efestivals.co.uk for comments etc from last year.

    Hop Farm is run by Vince Power, the guy who until recently owned Mean Fiddler, and he has huge wads of cash available to book artists, hence the Eagles even with their huge fee. Not to mention the contacts he has earned over years in the music business. Good for him though that he's back to promoting without sponsorship from insertnameofweakandtastelesslagerhere.

  • titchinellotitchinello Posts: 3,139
    hey. I know.... bad me. how is everything. same ol' same ol' i guess.

    Thats just how it is here, nothing new, just living along, nothing exciting happen. only thing of note in the last while, was skidding on black ice and crashing my car into a field on my way to work one night, back in january. i was okay, i bit of whiplash, and car survived. but other than that. not much been happening.
