WORD LOVE

I’m Still Standon

30.06.10

Standon calling_crowd_fields

If you weren’t one of the lucky ones who won tickets in our Dour Festival competition last week then never fear as we have another chance to enjoy a weekend of free al-fresco musical delights, this time courtesy of my own favourite UK festival Standon Calling.

Taking place 6-8th August in, you guessed it, Standon in Hertfordshire I’ve been going for about 5 years now (in fact me and Tony have DJ’ed in the cowshed a couple of times) and is about the only festival in the UK I’d even consider going to and camping at these days.

The line-up is always great, especially considering the festival only has a capacity of a couple of thousand, and this year sees the likes of Etienne de Crecy, Metronomy, Liars, Efterklang, Pantha du Prince, Fucked Up, Gold Panda and Factory Floor strut their stuff on the various stages.

Best of all (for me at least) it’s only about 40 minutes away from London, small enough to actually see everyone you might want to and well let’s just say you’ll be hard pressed to find a more relaxed festival.

If (like me) the tv coverage of Glastonbury just left you astonished that people would willingly intern themselves in a makeshift refugee camp the size of a small county then trust me this is the festival for you.

And so we have a pair of tickets to give away… Simply answer the easy question below and email us the answer before Friday 9th July for a chance to win.

Q: Standon Calling started as a birthday BBQ for the festival’s founder Alex Trenchard, but how many friends were invited along to that first party?

Good luck, and we’ll see you in the cocktail tent.
