Lambeth Country Show 2010 - 17-18th July

No Aswad?

We've got an after show party at the Albert on the Saturday, so you're all cordially invited to roll down the hill, post Chucklehead.

4.20 to 4.45pm - Miss Frank (X Factor finalists)

 

[Biddlybee]

Alabama 3 and a bit of Soul II Soul... I might just see some music this year

Going to have to google The Twinkle Brothers

 

[tarannau]

Ach, they're not all bad. Graziella(sp?) or whatever her name is was a bit of a regular toaster at a mate's hip hop night. They've been used and spat out by X Factor, but that's a reason to hate them forever. I can't say I'm rushing to see them, but if their appearance at the Hoot is anything to go by they may prove popular with the youth. I can't see why they're worth a facepalm tbh.

Not a bad bill all in all. Soul II Soul were a huge part of my childhood and if it's the same Chickaboo I'm thinking of, we should be in for a treat. I was worried that they'd be some godawful retro group trading on past glories once, but midway through a set a few years back they dropped some truly filthy bass and she took total control of the crowd. Fingers crossed they're still on form

I don't 'hate' them, I was just facepalming the 'X Factor finalists' billing.

I hope they still have a "Village Fete" stage this year. They've had one every year recently, and it's always been organized by Dexter Bentley from Resonance FM. He always puts together good line-ups of freak folk type bands. He had Olivia Chaney among others last year.

Quite a departure, having no reggae on the Saturday, but I think it'll go down well.

Gappy Ranks will do his massive "Heaven In Her Eyes" on the Wailers 'Soul Rebel' rhythm, but not sure anyone will know much more than that.

Saxon can be great, Tippa puts on a good show.

Twinkle Brothers are legends, and Norman Grant has lived in Brixton for decades, so the somewhat sparse line up comes good for me just with them headlining.

 

[nagapie]

Looking forward to Soul to Soul and the Twinkle Brothers.

And the veg, owls, get together, etc.

 

[gaijingirl]

ooh - great line up! The Thirst are good too (saw them at Offline once I think). Soul to Soul will make me feel young again and I liked Miss Frank.... And Alabama 3 of course!!

Can't wait for this.

 

[Orang Utan]

ssoooooooo excited - it's often the only holiday i get!

Stinkin rich was a big track too, I'm really looking forward to him.

Ah, been said already!

 

[Onket]

I'm there.

Shame Alabama 3 are appearing, but Soul II Soul should more than make up for it.

Cider plays havoc with my innards these days so I'll have to go easy.

 

[gabi]

When is this?

 

[Onket]

16 & 17th, I think.

[Shippou-Sensei]

They've announced line-up of Village Green stage. It's actually a bit rubbish this year.

But Rùn are worth listening to. They're playing at 4 on the Saturday. They're an all-girl acapella Gaelic folk band. Very good. Kind of bulgarian sounding.

No Cromer Smugglers

No Cromer Smugglers

I'm not a fan of the Cromer Smugglers but they're part of the Country Show furniture.


And I visited Cromer for the first time this year too.


Lots to fit in, the No Frills Band guerilla gig, the wedding picnic, Alabam 3.

 

[vauxhallmum]

No one doing the veg competition this year

 

[vauxhallmum]

Sorry, I meant amusing Scarecrow
