There are 6 stages, the main one being the 96.6 TFM stage, from the last couple of times i've been it's been a great crack, especially if the weather is nice.

I'll be going. Trying to swap a shift around at work though otherwise it will only be for the evening.

Is it true theres no outdoor drinking this year? If so I don't really see the point lol.

no, there's plenty of bars etc but you can't bring your own beer in, which in a way is a good thing, stops all the drunk charvas spoiling it

shameless bump for anyone who might be interested in this?

see those girls on shoulders next to the tree, i was in front of those for the twang.

other bands i liked were small white light in the empire and one at TMA at 4ish - can't emeber name but they are in my guide downstairs, was a good day over all

on another note, don't you think the twang were a bit big headed?, i know they'd just found out they'd reached no.8 in the charts but to come on stage, fag in mouth and ****** and blinding, i thought was a bit OTT considering there were kids there still too. Infact, it kinda put me off the band.

So that Twang pic should be renamed as the "Official OcUK Middlesbrough Music Live Festival almost a meet.jpg"

I think The Twang just did their EP songs and added a new one for their set.

I went to every stage at some point but stayed at the courtyard the longest.

did you see the films in the courtyard?
