%D%A %D%AWell, if you weren’t there, you missed out! What a fucking brilliant weekend!!!
%D few glitches along the way but all just part of the rock and roll ride that is Mattstock!!!
%D%A%D%ANearly 400 people came this year, that’s quite an achievement with no advertising (except myspace!!!) it just gets bigger and bigger…
%D%A%D%AThank you so much to everyone who came and helped in any way, shape or form, it is much appreciated and the true spirit of the festival. Special thanks to Si (sound), Nathan (Lights), Kev (everything) and Graheme (MC), also Sinuism and Hurt for combining their forces and producing a CD for Mattstock (I think this can still be bought from their myspaces) and everyone who was prepared to help with equipment (amps, drum kit etc…).
%D%A%D%AThanks to all the bands that played, the fact that there’s so much local talent makes it easy to fill 2 days with quality acts, (I had to turn bands down for the first time ever this year!), if you are unsure who any of the bands were here is a list with links (where possible) to all that played:%D%A

%D%A%D%A%D%AI have been listening through what was recorded (12 hours of music!!) and a lot of it is sounding v nice! Think its gonna be a while before a CD is born though, but it will definitely be one of the most random CD’s ever!!!%D%A
%D%AIf there is any chance that I can pull off another Mattstock this year I’m gonna need some help… please leave many comments along the lines of ‘how much you enjoyed it’, ‘how it can’t be the last one’, ‘how important it is’, ‘how good my parents are to let it happen’ (Good one!) etc…%D%A%D%A%D%A !
