I'm not entirely impartial but being as objective as I can, the overall programme was of a really high standard and mostly stuff that just wouldn't otherwise happen in Aberdeen. Audience numbers were a bit disappointing overall as there were maybe too many shows competing for the leftfield pound and the event probably fell a bit short of critical mass in terms of festive buzz. Wire, Pink Grease PanSonic, Liars, Yat Kha, Amp Fiddler, Nectarine No 9, Gwen McRae and Andre Williams were all outstanding and Moog, Prince Paul and Dr Alimantado were good fun too. Any feedback on how we can make it work better in Aberdeen is more than welcome.
