Who shouldnt i be missing then?

Those I recommend because I have seen them myself or the festival organisers recommend are:

13.30 -SIYAYA (Portmill Stage)

14.30-NEW TOWN CENTRES (Club 85) fast psychedelic punk pop

16.00-ROBERT MASEKO & CONGOBEAT

Thing is if you don't like any of these just wander over to another stage-there are 10 stages plus 4 pub venues

There are extra free parking spaces on the field next to Hitchin swimming pool.There aren't many places to stay-email the ROTW organisers as I know they are setting up a campsite for the weekend.

Saturday looks like the best day for the artist performing.Its vital to get a festival programme(£1) as soon as you arrive because the music starts at 12noon both days across 10 stages plus 4 additional venues(pubs)and its easy to miss the best stuff.
