Antfest

About Me

Antfest is the name given to a collection of charity events run by me- Anthony Martin. Every summer we put all of the best bands on at The Command House, Chatham for Antfest. Every Christmas we put some different but equally awesome bands on at The Beacon Court Tavern and call it Antfestive. All money raised goes to the Arethusa Venture Centre in Upnor in memory of my granddad Charles Tindal.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 14/03/2006
Band Website: www.myspace.com/anthonymonkey
Band Members: People to thank:

Without Jay Allen and Vic Wintergreen Antfest wouldn't happen every year. Blame them! They're the cream of sound engineering and having them both on board every year means that Antfest delivers consistently awesome sounds.

Tom Crittenden for lighting and providing most onstage equipment for the bands
Mr Sid Arora for being massivest
Simon Olley for lending out The Beacon Court for Antfestive
Al Carretta for excellent alt. DJing
Tom Crittenden for lighting and general awesomeness
Dave Bailey for being a comedy genius
Dan Cork for DJing
Chris Mills for DJing
Robertshaw for DJing
Dan Purton for letting everyone use his drumkit

I'd like to thank each and every member of every band that has played at one of my shows- it's really built up a cameraderie amongst the local scene and i'm hoping that in the future we can make Antfest the showcase for local music that it should be AND raise over £2000 for charity.
