What a day!
We may be tired and weary, but our souls are full.
Every band played their hearts out, and played a part in making it one of the best days we've been part of.
The warmth and thanks recieved from you all throughout the weekend make Handfest feel so valuable and rewarding.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
Without you it would be nothing!
Further thanks to all the people that supported the smooth running of the event. Sarah & John couldnt be a better pair of stage managers. Hannah runs the merch empire and is our dependable rock. Pete who helped on stage was a godsend. All the amazing art by Si Mitchell, really elevated things this year. Andy 'the fifth beatle' Hawkins giving us all the confidence in the sound. Duncan & Trevor doing an outstanding job with running the sound all weekend, every band was made up with the job you did. Nathan and all at the brude are absolute heroes, can't thank them enough for homing this incredible celbration of our little scene! Mikey, Mike & Mick were always on hand to help hump some boxes or get a round in. Big ups to Xander & Dory who have done an incredibe job of visually documenting it for us all too!
And finally a huge thank you to Signature Brew for providing the band rider and supplying the bar with that delicious Inpale/Expale!
Next up, London 26th September!
