We went to the Grand at Clitheroe to see the Animals and Friends. This is a great venue and has completely changed since I was here for school presentations many years ago. The ever fabulous Stumble were on first and they were on fire - literally. During the last song, the fire alarm went off. Everybody just ignored it because the music was so good.
Cam later told me that one of the amps had blown up, setting the alarm off.To be honest, after such a set, the Animals were ok, but the Stumble were just so much better.
We had the Big Whistle Folk Festival at the Met mid Feb, but I only got chance to see the fabulous Rachel Sermanni on the Saturday Afternoon as I was too busy making beer!
On the following weekend we set up the 2nd Ramsbottom Beer Festival for the RNLI. This was a bit quieter this year, probably due to being in the middle of the month. 46 hand-pulled beers were on , and we raised £1200 for the RNLI. Not as good as last year, so next year we will have to do better.
