The 5th West Coast Blues n Roots Festival has been and gone.
A lot of good music, good vibes and sunshine, and a lack of rubbish thanks to all the green initiatives! Unfortunately some issues again with sound like at Southbound and certain ticket holders having trouble getting in, but all in all I think it’s one of the more well organised and relaxed festivals of the summer.
Reviews and photos can be found in the following places:
PerthMusic - review day 1 and day 2 + photos on PerthNorg
The West - review and review + photogallery
Fasterlouder - review day 1, day 2 + photos
PerthNow - review, review, gallery, and face in the crowd galleries.
Photos by John MacFadyen, and you can see more from him and others at Flickr.
