For nearly eight hours the event volunteers put on an exciting programme which was opened by duo Wire JD and followed by REM tribute band REMbrandt. When Harri met Alli, a duo singing both classic and modern covers followed before the popular New Forest old time ski e and folk band the Trav Cats came on to give a high-octane performance. Solo Bluesman Bob Long had the unenviable task of following the Trav Cats but served up a well- received set of 1920’s and 1930’s numbers. e Soulcatchers raised the tempo again before local trio the One-O s rounded o the show. Extravagantly dressed compere Byron linked the performances with his entertaining banter; he was a brilliant singer too.
