What a summer!!
Wednesday, 6th October 2010
Well the dust has settled and The New groove Formation crew are on there annual break and this year seems a lot more settled than previous years as we did not do as many festivals this year as in previous years. However, we played a lot of important gigs this year. Important meaning in front of the right people and the feedback has been very good.
Although Bedford River Festival was by far the largest audience (I would say 5 – 10 thousand)! My little sister was there from America, not to mention the rest of the family and all the people who had actually travelled (YES TRAVELLED) to see us! It seemed to pass very quickly.
When we arrived on site we could not believe the big screens it was like WOW, very impressive! The adrenaline was pumping hard the atmosphere was calm and quite back stage with a sense of we must crack this one and a few jokes chucked in to help ease the pressure. We kick of with Turkish Delight and then zoooom we were at the end of the set! Looking back at the footage I was most impressed with our unreleased song – “SYSTEM SET UP” sounded good on the play back.
Bedford River festival marked the release of New Groove Formation’s 2nd album – “Who Made The Rules?” which has been in the pipeline for a while and we were all very pleased to present it on the day!!!
I’m not sure about any one else but I didn’t sleep for a couple of days after! The buzz you get when your given that kind of opportunity is immense better than any drugs you could ever get your hands on. If you could bottle it you would be very rich very quickly!!!! We would like to say thanks to all the fans for turning up and to Continental Drifts for the slot, more of the same please. lol
