The Waterboys are fantastic. For some reason, even though I love folk music, I’m not totally enamoured of their music but when I saw them live it was one of the best gigs I’ve ever been to.

The Waterboys are going to be busy that weekend. I'm seeing them at another festival on the Saturday!

Thank you. I'm not really into Folk other than the protest songs of the 60's and 70's so it going to be a 'journey' for me. I have noticed I am liking some C & W lately is it an old age thing I'm really a Blues/Jazz fan?

This festival hasn't been held for 2 years and we have only been in this town a little while but we are told its a fantastic 3 day event based around the canals. The Sunday is free but tickets available for the other two days with someone called The Waterboys as a headline act on the Friday evening. We are told the town will be buzzing with a big street market on the Saturday and a canal boat market for the whole 3 days. I just thought if anyone was near the east Cheshire area they might like the chance to hear music in the open air.
I haven't been to a music festival for **years but we will be going- must get my festival vibe on- there is a Monsoon dress here somewhere and a floppy hat.
