    All those getting to the Roo early should try and catch Newton Faulkner, he's huge in the UK right now and seems to be touring the US hard so maybe some of you will of heard of him. If not basically he's a rootsy guitarist with an interesting guitar technique of basically playing while using it for precussion at the same time, perhaps the best example being his cover of Massive Attacks 'Teardrop.' He's also very entertaining doing a great impression of the Kings Of Leon and an incredible one man version of Queen's Bohemiem Rhapsody. Not everyone's cuppa tea granted but if you wanna be entertained and enjoy some great acoustic based songs then you'll love it. Okay shameless plug over, he's from my hometown and played my festival a few years back ya see.

    Newton Faulkner
    Thurs 12th June
    That Tent
    6:15-7pm

    I can second this. I saw him as a support act at the Royal Albert Hall and he had the audience eating out of the palm of his hand. If he can get this going at a festival it would be awesome.

    As you said his guitar technique is v. cool
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Maybe walk around wearing a sign that says your better then everybody else, I mean that Europe is better.

    There's the term ''ugly American'' that is sometimes used to describe us. Meaning some Americans have a moment while traveling in Europe. When they are pissy about certain things that aren't the same in Europe like it is back in the states. Well you could be the first that people use the term ''ugly European'' on. ;)

    And since when were you going to the Beacon, I thought you were flying back to the ugly continent on CANADA DAY!!!
    yep, Oscar booked himself a flight and ticket so it's definite.

    and I was always flying back on the 2nd in case a 1st July show got added :p
