Just back yesterday evening. The good news is my digital camera seems to be history so no pics...... Arrived about Midday Friday so we go walkabout, didnt notice the black cloud looming above the Malvern hills so we got drenched. Not a good start then. Now when I went 2 years ago for the first time it was brilliant, crowds everywhere and good entertainment but last year wasnt so good. This year frankly was crap. According to the website it was sold out over a month ago but utter rubbish, reckon there was only half the peeps as there were 2 years ago. I had to get my tickets in March so I can get in the club field in the middle so I had no idea what entertainment was on. Looks like the organisers have gone down the PC route with a big emphasis on gay. Friday night was George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley tribute act. Did have a quick look, RUBBISH. Saturday 3 seperate drag acts. WTF??? Needless to say I didnt bother. Only saving grace was they still had pub bands on at the Sheep Shed, rock, thats what us old VW fans want you fecking muppets! Luckily it didnt rain on the Friday or Saturday evening so at least I didnt get wet as its an outside stage but Friday was freezing. I had a little for sale sticker on my van, generated a lot of interest at £3750 but then it would, most were ten times that price or more!

Re: Busfest 2017
There was a guy getting interned on BBC radio two today about it, guy doing the interview says he's never heard of event and asks other guy to describe what it's all about, mmmm, he didn't make a very good job of it,,, don't think more tickets will be sold based on it...
