Roger's Rants Folk Music Festival, Milborne St Andrew, Dorset 18th - 20th July 2008

I came across Roger of Roger's Rants Folk Festival when I was at Wimborne Folk Festival 2008.

Roger's Rant takes place 18th - 20th July 2008 and bills itself as an:

interactive weekend of song, music and dance in the heart of the Dorset countryside.
The emphasis of this small folk festival appears to be on joining in, whether it be singing, playing folk music instruments or dancing at the Saturday night Ceilidh

Any profit made will be split between the RNLI, Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance and next years RANT, he says in his festival leaflet.

I also mentions 'storytelling'. I wonder what that is about?

With camping at only a fiver a night per person with hard standing for camper-vans and use of showers and indoor toilets, it looks like my sort of festival.

Bye for now
