MSP at Camper Calling

https://www.campercalling.com/

Not sure how I feel about this, and I've got a camper van!

I wouldn't go for the whole weekend just to see them play a set to a probably indifferent crowd. Didn't they do a Carfest type thing last year?

Boys gotta earn I guess, good for them.

I don't like camping and don't care for festivals so not bothered, but hope the band put on a good show and work the crowd. The set list will be very easy to predict.

Well have fun if you're going and if you bring more new fans, hi there! Manic Street Preachers have more than what you'd want from a band and aren't going anywhere yet.
Did you have a nice time?

Looks like a good low key family friendly festival...the band can take the kids...camping and introducing the great outdoors I am all for....though I do remember Nicky throwing one of his sparkly bombs James's way for looking like a rambler once....

Better than badger culling Glasto
