Dear Maverick,
I had the privilege of attending the Maverick festival this weekend past and just wanted to congratulate all involved. I have attended many festivals over the years and know what makes a good or bad festival. The organisation was superb and the range of acts was excellent with favourites that I knew or had seen before and also acts that were new to me. I “discovered” many artists that I had not heard before and subsequently spent a large amount of money on CD’s for future listening pleasure.
Thank you for organising such a great event, I will look forward to the 2nd Maverick Festival with anticipation. Please pass my thanks to all involved including the Easton Park staff who also were excellent.
Long live the Maverick Festival.
Best regards
Alex Farrell
