Indeed - Dan Brown eat your heart out

Only caught the end of Grader's set which was promising, Uncalm were solid as ever, Departures reminded me of American Nightmare which is no bad thing, BGOM were fun, Intensions were awesome even tho everyone had left - Bass tone was lovely. Nice work Deenfest.

Managed to visit the Masonic Temple last year - Amazing, Pity the Tivoli Theatre aint on the list anymore - Also well worth a gander! Need to try check out a few more I've yet to see this time around!

Cheers Was advertised online and in the running shop on Holburn St, sure i saw it listed in P&J too. Route was from Pitmedden playing fields out along the railway line for 6.5 miles turn around then back - Very slight slopes in places but on the whole nice and flat.

If anyone has pics from Friday, please pass them on. Also, i am lead to believe that someone recorded the event on a MiniDisc Recorder?? We'd really like a copy, if at all possible.

Cheers!
