Today we’re off to the Shiiine weekender in Butlins at Minehead. It has become THE platform for the ultimate indie party over the last 9 years. Alongside the weekenders they have also hosted boat parties along and cruises, all with live music and DJs. The weekender though is the ultimate for true indie fans.
Great line up this year as we’re on with The Lightning Seeds and Echo & The Bunnymen!
It’s a long journey to Minehead so we planned a trip to Frampton on Severn for lunch…
The journey called for two films so first off was this Will Ferrel comedy…
Then after a short stop we plumbed for this favourite…
On route we found out the ‘three horseshoes’ pub we’d planned to visit was shut but fortunately there was another one in the vicinity…
Situated just minutes from the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal and a short drive from both Stroud and Gloucester, The Bell is a favourite for locals, walkers and visitors exploring the local area.
The otter beer is one we’ve had a few times…
And this one was a decent alternative…
The food was very good…
mixed vegetables & choice of potato £14
Time to head off to Minehead…
Still a way to go…
At last we arrived…
Straight to the dressing room…
We thought we’d check out the Milltown Brothers…
Soon enough it was time for us to go on…

Next up the Lightning Seeds…
Time to watch the Bunnymen…
After the Bunnymen we watched The Wedding Present…
It was a great festival and we all really enjoyed the day!
