Kubix Festival

Ticket sales must be terrible mind. I was anticipating the “shuttle bus” service to comprise a fleet of mini buses running from town all day. Turns out it’s a single bus leaving park lane at 10.45. I’m not leaving the caravan til about 9 so ill probably not even be home by then. Currently trying to work out The cheapest way to get there from Fulwell. Taxi or metro/taxi?

In what way is it tragic? A load of much loved bands and a new band playing much loved songs. And the boomtown rats.

Did you see the Urban Myths comedy about Live Aid on Sky Arts?
Midge and Bob arguing over who got highest billing
Midge: How long’s your set?
Bob; I dunno....20 minutes?
Midge: It’s 18 minutes. I checked. What are you going to do for 18 minutes? Play your hit 4 times?

You can add Like Clockwork, Someone's Looking At You and Diamond Smiles to that list for me. Canny band, just that Bob was very unlikeable.

The key with this little group of bands is whether they can still do it live and knock a decent tune out.The answer seems to be yes for most of them.Even the ropey ones seem to have sorted themselves out
 
Looking at the line up, I think I will just dig out a few cassettes I recorded off the radio back in the day, then sit in my backyard
