Meriel coined the phrase 'Outreach' festival for Larmer Tree in the deepest depths of Dorset because it is THE most middle class festival you're ever likely to see! And I'll tell you for why...
1. When we arrived to see Andrea, there was no space to dance, just a sea of grey hair and wax jackets around the stage, erm, I mean SEATED around the stage...reading the Guardian and wondering what time the 'dream catcher' workshop starts.
2. No hippies... no travellers... no complete festival nutters having a far out messy time
3. Posh campervans everywhere... and caravans... being pulled by Porshes and BMW 4x4's
But anyhoo, we had a good time, despite the rain and MUD. Lots of mud...
Andrea had a cool time hanging out on BBC Radio Solent with Sally Taylor and Jonny Walker - Jonny Walker from Radio 2! Andrea was told by a dude from the BBC that if Jonny plays any of her songs just twice onhis show and Radio 2, then she's there! If she gets on the Radio 2 playlist that'll be AWSEOME... clever little sunshine lady!
