Am looking forward to it myself, as I'm gonna be a steward and get in for free!
I can just see me now!? Standing by the entrance gate, looking menacing! and telling the folkies, " If you ain't wearing the right kind of Arran sweater!? You ain't getting in!

That is one hell of a line up. I am applying for a 2nd mortgage to cover fuel supplies as I type ...
Cara Dillon and Luka Bloom on the same night, apart from anything else, would make the entrance fee worthwhile alone.

Mmmmmm
