Like everyone else already said, a big thanks to Kieran, Bruce and everyone else involved for the excellent show. With a line-up like this, coming over from the Netherlands is a no-brainer. I definitely hope there will be a Firefest III, though this line-up will be hard to top.
I especially loved Nexx, Blue Tears, Shy, Vaughn(!), D2 and House of Lords. Harem Scarem played a great set too, and they seem to be getting a bit better at live shows and entertaining the audience, but the impression remains that they are still not really a live band, no matter how great they are in the studio.
I agree with Neil that Blue Tears was better on Friday - I enjoyed the acoustic set that we got when Robert went through the bass drum - but I still regret that they only played for half an hour on Saturday... maybe because they already knew that the setting up for Vaughn would take much longer than the scheduled time? If so, thanks to Gregg & co for giving Vaughn the time they needed... Vaughn was awesome!
Hope to see you all again at the next one!
