Glastonbury 1994 My first Glastonbury festival, went in my van, hard to fault the lineup on the NME stage... Blur, Pulp, Oasis, Beastie Boys, Bjork, Manics, etc. Britpop-tastic. Glastonbury Worthy Farm, Somerset [Thursday 23 June 1994]

Reading Festival 1999 Blur headlined, not a very strong lineup I don't think. I was working mostly, and managed to lose my first mobile phone that work lent me. Reading Festival Reading, Berkshire [Friday 27 August 1999]

The Avalanches Went with an old workmate, got drunk before the gig and I think I went home as soon as the band came on. Electric Ballroom Camden, London NW1 8QP [Wednesday 8 August 2001]

Reading Festival Just went for the day, and we picked the worst day by far looks like, RHCP disappointed. I remember They Might Be Giants and Echobelly and Ginger Wildhearts playing with a broken arm. Reading Festival Reading, Berkshire [Sunday 28 August 1994]

Reading Festival 2000 Placebo, Queens of the Stone Age, Slipknot, Gorky's, Foo Fighters, Ween, Primal Scream, Daphne and Celeste, JJ72, SFA, And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, At The Drive In... Reading Festival Reading, Berkshire [Friday 25 August 2000]

Essential Festival Super Furry Animals, Kula Shaker, Menswear, Echobelly, Marion, Chumbawamba, Bis and more... missed David Devant, but I did trek there with 16 people in my bus. Stanmer Park Brighton [Sunday 26 May 1996]

Tiger plus Linoleum. Had to walk back from Southampton after being stopped with no lights on my bike, then head to Phoenix Festival the next day. The Joiners 141 St Mary Street, Southampton, Hampshire SO14 1NS [Wednesday 17 July 1996]

Phoenix Festival I clearly remember David Devant and Holy Barbarians, David Bowie, Sex Pistols and Foo Fighters too I think, must have seen a lot more though... Santa Pod Raceway [Thursday 18 July 1996]

Heineken Festival Kirsty MacColl and Tom Robinson. Honestly, I went to some better gigs than this. Southsea Common [Thursday 19 August 1993]

Terrorvision with Mutha's Day Out and Valve. Sure the last Portsmouth Venue Campaign show that I did was Terrorvision, but these dates still don't line up... Portsmouth Pyramids Marine Parade, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO5 3ST [Monday 1 May 1995]

Who earned you what Back Street Boys were this weeks top payer with a divi of an amazing £1.50 per share, due to fantastic placings in the UK and US charts... Moby offered the better value for money though. [Friday 17 March 2000]

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
