Productive meeting with Joe Toll from SAE events ltd last night. We are partnering with Joe to put on sound in several venues this year.
Joe is a good friend of the festival and an excellent sound engineer. We are also working with our regular team of Dave Jewson, Simon Tall, Tom Hardy and Simon Squibb without whom we would not have a festival. We are holding our meeting in The Green dragon of course!
