Weekend at "Glastonbury"

Good morning!

What a lovely day it was on Saturday and Sunday. After the weeks showers it dried out nicely. Well it was the Glastonbury festival this weekend, and while we were not at the official Glastonbury we played a mini festival in Aldershot. It was a homage to Glastonbury for the Sergeant's Mess and what a great evening it was. There were two stages and we alternated playing. We opened the night at about 6:15 for 45 minutes then the other band played from 7 till about 7:45. We played our originals and the other band (http://www.21stcenturyriot.co.uk/) played covers. The guys from 21st Century Riot were top chaps and helped us with our sound check and played a great range of tracks to keep the crowd happy.

Our sets went down well, with some of the crowd telling us it was great to hear some original music as well. We really appreciated all the positive comments after both the sets and loved the festival atmosphere with people blowing whistles and drinking jelly shots!

The food we got provided with was amazing, a lovely spread of BBQ and side salads. So a huge thanks to the organisers for such an hospitable atmosphere and letting us share in such a great event.

A highlight for the whole band was the "bucking bronco" in the shape of a camel. Karen was first up and set the benchmark of about 42 seconds, which none of the lads could beat!

The evening was a great success and we hope to be able to play at future events they hold.

Hope you had a lovely weekend as well.

It has been in the making for a while what with us being fussy people but we now have a fantastic looking new website.

Huge thanks to @defydesign and @_alexfarr for all the hard work and great final product.

Please feel free to look around and say hi via our many places on the web. You can now also listen to our album "Holding for A Reason" on Spotify and Last FM.

Thanks again to Mike and Alex for all the hard work. We love the new site and logo!
