GIRL POWER! ✌🏻 Seriously, how good is female music at the moment? There should be loads more of it on the lineup, and in much more prominent slots. Some festivals are attempting to get a 50/50 gender split. If representation was by merit it would be 70/30 in favour of female groups, hands down. Girls are rocking it!
Plenty to keep me happy here.. I do get the feeling that the Avalon bookers enjoy a bit of *jesus it was so rammed I couldn't get near* kudos.. but that's being picky.. if they can book someone why not- so long crowd control is safe enough. Lulu should be on a bigger stage though.
