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).

Most newish PCs have it already.  Also available for Mac and handheld PCs etc. Need not be the latest version, but if you have problems, you could

We once again thank local TV, Radio (especially Reading 107 FM) and Newspapers for their support in spreading awareness of this worthy event. Thanks also to Festival Eye, eFestivals and Josaka for listing it.
