So, Friday night saw me bail out of work early to ensure being in a postion to be picked up to go down to Cheltenham for Judder. Considering that it was a new place, with new people and music I wasn't used to I held out rather well 8-). Despite appearances to the contrary (because of aforementioned issues) I did enjoy myself and liked the people I did meet and managed to drag me out of my shell 8-). And I hear that the music is usually better which should be good if I do go again.

I just sent this to (I hope) all my local friends but I thought I'd share it with everyone else in case they wanted to come along and sample a bit of Warrington Culture (we have our very own Cultural Quarter you know).

Hi All,

No, stop rolling your eyes like that. Warrington has it's very own
music festival and, whilst it may not have the gravitas of
Glastonbury, the celebrity of T in the Park or the chance to throw
bottles of piss at Daphne and Celeste like leeds/Reading, it does have
some bloody good fun unsigned local bands. It's happening next

Something's going on in Warrington. Warrington, chiefly known as the world's greatest exporter of chavs and soap has a surprisingly decent music scene coupled with a surprisingly decent (if small), northern quarter-esque bar - The Lounge.
