kendal calling on radio 6

Andy Smith promoter from Kendal calling talking to Steve Lama with Nigel Benn of Festival Republic and Kat Morris from Great Escape, should be interesting listening.

I was asked to submit some info for this programme, having done that I've been thinking I think if someone tried to start a festival like Reading/Leeds they would really struggle.

It's actually a rare thing now to have an outdoor festival which solely focuses on the music, in that respect I think Nigel Benn has something that's actually pretty unique. I can't think of another festival that has so many stages and so little else and still succeeds so well.

Nigel Benn? Has he given up boxing for festivals, or something?

I think you may mean 'Melvin'.

Was it not Nigel Benn and Chris eubank then????

Very interesting listen, it's crazy how much band prices have gone up.
