Heyfest 2008 is now in its glorious seventh
year and back with a vengeance!
This 9 hour festival of live music, fun and real ales takes place at Upper Heyford Village, just 5 mile west of Bicester, Oxfordshire OX25 5LB (see map below).
LIVE BANDS, GUEST DJ'S, REAL ALES & WINES & CIDERS, PIG ROAST, KIDS JUICE BAR, BOUNCY CASTLES AND STUFF FOR KIDS
[see map below for directions to Upper Heyford]Our very popular local fund raiser has grown from a few friends playing from the back of a farm trailer into a yearly gathering of the tribes for local musicians and fans alike. Our local biker fraternity, The Beerhounds are regular supporters and certainly know how to party!
The gates will open at midday on Sunday 17th August to welcome real ale fans, music loves, families, bikers, lunatics and all their children too. There will be a variety of food and drink to be guzzled and gobbled, both for grown ups and their long suffering kids who will have to look after them. Once again the village organizers (Wynne's girlie's) will be working their little asses off to ensure a wicked day out. There will be bouncy castles and stuff to keep the nippers amused.
Phil & Amanda have brought together a hand-picked line up of 6 bands. ranging from acoustic acts, through blues, rock, alternative and crowd-pleasing covers.
Chris King will be compere/DJ as usual, they couldn't afford a proper DJ. So we are all willing victims to his toy collection of PA equipment, lasers, computers big mouth and lighting rig. Several special guest DJ's have agreed to plug the gaps between bands, so some very idividual mixing styles will be on show.
The line-up, subject to any last minute changes goes roughly like this...
