Background
This was 2003’s Charity Gig, continuing to help pay for the building extension and further disabled facilities in Arborfield’s
 
Village Hall.

Eleven live bands played (in rapid succession!) from Noon till very late on Arborfield recreation ground, behind The Bull public house
(in Arborfield, near Reading, Berkshire,UK). Click here for an on-line map

Organized by Dave Woodwards (of The Swan) and Helen Reed-McGregor (Chair of the Hall Committee and Parish Council).

Only possible thanks to our community- minded  Sponsors.

Come back soon to review the day thanks to photos as well as streaming audio and video !

Videos courtesey of Gary Cowan and another cameraman (sorry, don’t know your name!) not to mention Steve Burkwood who capturted them all to CD (using DivX & mp3). Video processing is by Dave Esp.

Sound recordings thanks to Norman Wootten (Minidisc) and David Esp (mixing & processing). Shame about the cheap mic.!  Better quality is to come from the videos - check back later.
