Guildfest is still happening, It's just that Radio 2 won't be there. I don't know who will be announcing the turns on the No1 stage this year. _________________ Lord Evan Elpuss, Your ideal job is a Lumberjack. |

If one of the commercial radio networks is sponsoring part or all of the event I would assume that the same network has the radio broadcasting rights on the gig. That would therefore explain why any of the BBC's networks won't be broadcasting. _________________ ONline, ONdigital and ONtherocks: BBC Radio 2.

It's almost certainly down to BBC cutbacks but it's great that the festival can survive without BBC money. I just hope the cutbacks don't affect those things that can't... |
