Quiet, but who really cared?
I guess we are all resigned to the fact it was not as popular as the Prestatyn weekenders and this, sadly, might be the last new year weekender...

Shame though... I thought even with the shocking wind, cold and rain, getting to the arenas eventually was soooo worth it!

Friday: Pin-Up and Kidd knocked my socks off!

Saturday: Tidy Boys four hour set over the new year!!! I have this vision that they can potentially play 20 great songs to play an ultimate set beyond being beat! They played 17 in this set! The visuals were stunning as were for all... but the cheesy countdown just was so apt and cool... awesome way to see the new year in! Personally had to give in and not catch the Glazby set, which was a shame! Doidn't envisage a Kick It finish, so hope for Hostile, but did miss it anyway :(

Sunday: Energy form Haslam as standard, a cracking set... then I decided to give Illogik a try! FUCK ME, he rocks... why have I not heard him play before? Whitby followed with similar awesomeness and then a return to the main arena for a Tidy Boys close...

Songs 18 and 19 came... there was only one more song to hear (as magna mix of Till Tears Do Us Part would not be played again I thought)... approaching the end of the set... then FUCK ME... the Tidy Boys played a full version of Hostile themselves... what a way to finish... ...

... NO! They played song 20... Flashheadz - Promised Land... I couldn't believe it... nowhere else on earth I wanted to be...

There was a bit of an exodus then... you can tell the Tidy unfaithful then, cos those who know their Tidy knew the next song miles off... a slow piano bit...?!? YES... HEAVENS CRY - TILL TEARS DO US PART!!! MAGNA MIX!!!

Just unbelievable! Three thoroughly awesome nights had... a bit quieter than a usual weekender, but that only meant that the slimmer amount of DSIers that went you actually had a chance to banter with better... I honestly felt this was a huge success critically if not financially for Tidy!

Perhaps a Summer Camp would prove that Tidy can, by numbers, do a weekender away frm the Camp Site in North Wales...

So... it was a cracking weekender... a bit quiet, bit of shocking weather, but Jez and Charlie had it right:

IT'S ABOUT MUSIC
