PAM FEST

SPAM DAGGERS - MOONDANCE

'When can we do it again'

100 plus music lovers enjoyed an eclectic day of live acoustic music, kicked off by Yasgur's Farm, a 4 piece band from West London giving their rendition of 60's Americana.

The Starcross Lovers took us into the 70's and 80's with some dulcet harmonies and a mix of banjo and guitar started to warm up the ever increasing audience.

Humble Hybel insisted on a spot and their mix of self penned tunes and sweet catchy lyrics by Rosie were a delight to the ears,

'they were so good that Simon Cowell wouldn't have liked them'

An impromptu interlude of old time folk music was a welcome change in direction. The Downhill Racers pumped out a couple of tunes that kept feet tapping and many a shout of 'woohoo'

On came Ceri with some friends from Ysgol Gyfun Dyffryn Taf and once again gave us original acoustic music of a high standard.

John Wright, guitar, Meurig Griffiths, bass put togeether a set of songs that warmed audience and then took it up a level when John Mile End joined on harmonica. Huw Balti joined in a few songs and the festival was alive with good humour and good music.

'I've never seen Meurig concentrate so much when he was playing

'Ballad of John and Yoko'

Yasgur's Farm and The Starcross Lovers did their second sets and picked the pace up.

Followed by The Spam Daggers aka Uncle Lyndon and Ginger Gar ably supported by bassplayer Meurig on a djembe.

A short obscure set by The Frank Jenkins Experience climaxing in Warren Zevon's Halloween special 'Werewolves of London' and The Allman Brothers' 'One Way Out' kept everybody dancing in readiness for the headlining act The Spam Daggers who took us up to the midnight hour.

An ensemble finale saw the Stereophonics' Local Boy in a Photograph finish the night off with the amassed crowd singing and dancing for more.
