This was an odd gig.
This was the Big Session when it rained. It rained and it didn't stop raining. The first band on (3 Daft Monkeys if I remember right...) had to play in the beer tent because it was the only not-flooded place to put them.
This was the weekend that "bogtrolloping" was invented. The rules have evolved over time, but it pretty much involves trampleing across a muddy festival field without falling over. And bonus points if you accidentally land face-down in a pizza getting out of your tent...
Oysterband finished off the festival with a collaboration with some of the other bands that were playing. For most of the gig they kept telling us "Rory McLeod is going to be here later... playing the trombone!" and we all giggled - thinking they were joking. Then Rory did indeed turn up - with trombone. I'm not quite sure why...
