Mill Hill Music Festival - Support your local Blogger

As regular readers of this blog will know, I am an organiser of the Mill Hill Music Festival. This is a bi-annual event, which between 25th June - 2nd July will take over my life. Most nights I'll get to bed at 3am, having been doing sound, rigging and de-rigging the gigs. We've done our absolute best to put together a brilliant program of gigs. As with previous festivals, I will not be writing political blogs at all during this period. The blog will become my festival diary and hopefully give anyone who is interested a feel for what it is like to run a local music festival.

At the time of the last festival, two years ago, we had VickiM and Don't Call Me Dave on the local blogging scene. Sadly DCMD has retired, but we now also have Mrs Angry, Mr Reasonable and Mr Mustard to give you your fix of high quality Barnet blogging during this period. I am sure they will suitably fill the breach, if you are missing the tales of shenanigans in the town hall.

Anyway, this is a heartfelt appeal. The Music Festival is a labour of love. The organisers do it for free, give our time & efforts. All the musicians are paid (apart from me!) as we believe that they deserve it. We have some great artists playing all sorts of music, please click in the sidebar.

Anyway, here's my little plug for me. My band, the False Dots, are playing on the first night, along with a brilliant young band called Angels with Enemies and a great Rythm and Blues band called  The Ron Lewis Partnership. We are appearing at the Mill Hill Sports Club in Graham Park Way. The tickets are £5 in advance or £7 on the door. They can be purchased via the website link in the green sidebar. You can also buy tickets from Mill Hill wines. Please come down, say hello and support us. If you do, please say hello. Our band has two guitarists. I'm the tall one, Fil is the short Portuguese one.

If you can't make Saturday, please come to another event. Jacqui Dankworth is sold out, but there are a few tickets for the other gigs

Here's a little taste of the sort of stuff we play
