Is This Music?

Festivals

Craig, Paul, and Glenn look forward to the festival season while going off on a million tangents. Note: This episode was recorded on April 17th - before the allegations regarding Slam Dunk organiser Ben Ray came to light. We've left the segment about Slam Dunk in as a festival is bigger than one person - no matter how much of a scum bag that person is.
