End Of The Road Festival 2011 @Larmer Tree Gardens, DorsetS

Back again for the 2011 festival managing to make the first act on stage, Secret Sisters, and see the finishing Act, Johannah Newsome (tedious) out on the Sunday night. Warm and sunny on the friday, mixed the other two days with a squally shower for the duration of the impressive Midlake. Layout different from last year as the Woods Stage had been added for the headline act which ensured a lot of tooing and froing between it and the far nicer Garden Stage. But with slopes down to both stages, a good view was always available. There was a degree of sound spillage between one stage and another and also felt that the bass was a bit prevalent so marring the sound.

Secret Sisters
Opening act of the weekend on the Garden Stage, liked their self penned songs and shows promise but their covers were just covers.
