I went down to talk to Tom and Joe about it all
It was great to finally meet Kulk at ArcTanGent this year. Here they take on the 1 question interview...at the math rock festival full of polyrhythms and time sig changes πππ

Check out my other interview videos too π
I had a great time talking to Hugo White from 86TVs before their album launch show tonight.
I promise that the answers for the zine are a bit longer ππππ
CLT DRP take on the PSP 1 question interview again at 2000 Trees Festival
Their set on the NEU stage was definitely the best I have ever seen them and one of the highlights of the whole weekend
I waited for 2 hours for a 37 seconds interview, but I achieved an ambition of speaking to NOVA TWINS after a brilliant main stage set at 2000 Trees Festival (headliner next time, yeah?)
They thought I was joking when I said it would only take a minute πππ

Panic Shack take on the 1 question interview at 2000 Trees Festival last weekend in between a crushed main stage set and headlining the Neu stage
2000 Trees Festival supports several music-related charities
I went with Panic Shack to volunteer with Gig Buddies and learn about what they do from volunteer Kai Jones and his buddy Richie.
2000 Trees Festival isn't just about the music - they also support some brilliant music-related charities.
On Saturday I went with Panic Shack to volunteer at one of their favourite charities Gig Buddies. They pair up volunteers with adults with learning disabilities or autism so that they can go out and enjoy themselves at gigs, sport matches, theatre, going out for food or whatever. The buddies help with whatever is needed - from finding events and buying tickets, organising travel, thinking about plans (and backup plans) to enjoying the events themselves.
I spoke to Richie and his buddy Kai Jones all about what they do, plus Panic Shack about the organisation that they have supported for ages.
This was Richie's first go at a camping festival and I think he'll definitely be back if the rocking out to DFA 1979 or ESB is anything to go by ππ€π
The stall at Trees was run by Gig Buddies Gloucestershire, with visits from Bristol, Oxford & Cymru too - look at https://gigbuddies.org.uk/ for info about how to volunteer or request services near you

After HOURS on non-stop interviews, Barry from Gallus still had enough voice for a 1 question interview and a brilliant set at 2000 Trees Festival
It was great to see them on a big stage after last seeing them squished behind the pillars at The Fleece with Heavy Lungs. They really suited having some space to move around

I was so glad to finally get to see them after they were recommended to me at Trees last year by Gurriers
Don't worry, there'll be a full interview with them in the next zine too
Here's a special landscape video just for the Facebook gang π
