Re: Darwen Live 2009
 

I've just got back. The solar stage where my grandson played was uphill near the library.
Most people were crowded around the main stage on the bus station.

Re: Darwen Live 2009
 

Was it good?
Suitable for a 10 yr old do ya think??

Re: Darwen Live 2009
 

of course its suitable for a 10 year old, Reece came with me last year and he was only 11, he loved it

oh and they check your bags on the way in, you cant take any open bottles or cans in, if you want to take a drink in the bottle has to be sealed, you cant take your own alcohol in either but you can buy theirs

Re: Darwen Live 2009
 

Ok, thanks for that :)
