Two established and much-loved Scottish festivals have joined forces to announce a powerful new partnership for live music in Scotland! The festival is situated ideally between both Glasgow and Edinburgh in Linlithgow, making it easily accessible.
Taking place in the grounds of Bonnytoun Farm, across the loch from Linlithgow Palace, the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots.
The journey to our hotel in Yorkshire from Orpington took a good four to five hours arriving at about 3.30 am…
We got stuck in traffic at the Dartford tunnel…
Three hours later, we we’re back up for breakfast…
We checked out of the hotel and wondered what the commotion was…
A flat tyre…
That’s all we need!
Fortunately it was sorted…
We chose the scenic coastal route…
This was today’s film…
It was superb, kept us totally entertained all along the A1…
The border…
Nearly there…
Finally our dressing room…
Good to meet up with Ed Pope who’s playing sax today…
Ed was appearing at the Edinburgh fringe festival and came over to play and also sample some of our Groovy Grain beers…
The moment of truth…
This was also on the rider…
The dressing room was 15 mins walk from the festival site so we had to take all our ‘gear’ over in a shuttle bus…
We were allocated a cabin backstage and were joined by Nick and Rachel the owners of Let’s Rock Scotland…
Stage times…
Roy had earlier gone out front to have a look…
Last orders…
Waiting to go on…
All Together Now…

Great crowd…
After the show we met up with Kevin Caulfield, husband of comedienne Jo Caulfield who had indeed come to see us…
We had a great time but we were all exhausted after the marathon journeys…
We’d missed out on a few meals so the caterers give us something to take with us…
Now for the tiring journey home…
But what a great weekend we all had!
