A very unusual festival with some seriously dodgy stuff going on at night. I was backstage in a Bender and was hearing tales of the dodgy Security trying to rob the organiser of the takings, various weapons being used.

I also heard one or two people died by the end of the festival, people had gastrointestinal issues due to a polluted watter supply (possibly even Hepatitus). Site got trashed....lots of 'Brew Crew' AKA Drongoes.

Lots of much more detailed information on the UK Rock Festivals site on their Treworgey Tree Fayre pages.
