Hey, Dick Gaughan gets loads of credit!


He's been at The Goose at least twice and possibly three times (too late to count) and he's coming to East Dulwich again in September! YAY !!!

I find the cod Oirishness of public schoolboy and lightweight drinker shane mcgowan tiresome at the best of time, at xmas, after a few too many repeats of that pogues dirge, I begin to veer from finding him tiresome, to wishing someone would wrestle him in a hessian sack, weighed down with rocks,and dump him into the nearest canal.with bono .

    • I completely agree.   Pride used to be in Brixton and Brockwell Park before it outgrew it and moved to Finsbury Park.  Quite reasonable to accept limitations and respond properly  
    • Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found. 
    • Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.      
    • Campfire on from about 7pm on Fridays - pop along and join me - I always have some Small Beer available.
