Radio DJ 'Whispering' Bob Harris, will be interviewing and introducing artists live on the new Bob Harris Presents stage on Sunday and will feature Gary Louris & Mark Olson (The Jayhawks), Pete Molinari, and Mike Heron with Georgia Seddon - the Incredible String Band songwriter performing with his daughter.

Tickets are on sale, and as last year, kids go free (under 14 accompanied by an adult). An adult weekend ticket is priced at £70 including camping and workshops. Children under 14 years old must be accompanied by a paying adult, max 2 per adult, and still need tickets.

Camping is available within a stone's throw of the action. No dogs, barbecues (of any kind), campfires, sound-systems (this does not mean your small Sony cd player), or glass.
