obbm Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 This will be my first real gig since major prostate surgery last summer - yes almost a year without gigging. How have I survived? Loxwood Beer Festival is an annual event with 9 bands from 2:00pm until 11:pm. Plenty of real ale and great food plus loads to do for the children. Usually a large crowd and as the weather is looking good it should be a great day. We're on at 7:00pm but we will be there all day running the stage and PA and we just might creep back on stage for the finale with Throbbin' Hood. Loxwood is between Guildford and Hosham, just inside Sussex.

Despite the fine weather I don't think there was as large a crowd as in previous years and a mixed bag of bands. Our set went went well, in fact we had some nice complements. After Throbbin Hood finished we joined them on stage for four numbers. 5 guitars, 2 basses, 2 drummers. a few moments of mayhem and madness (not the band). It was a long day and maybe I'm not as fully fit as I thought I was because I'm started to suffer towards the end of the evening and am totally exhausted today. Got to do it all again at Broadbridge Heath in 2 weeks time. Misrule (Mark) dropped by for a chat. Nice to see him again.
