The is possibly the first instance that this phrase has been uttered but thank god I live in St Helens!
It's not often that you get the luxury of being a five minutes walk away from a Music Festival.The local council should be applauded for putting on the second Eclectica festival - performed in front of the town hall. Pity about the weather and the turn out though.
On the bill were local bands The Loungs and Tin Tin Lady as well as established artists such as Ian McNabb, The Oysterband and Michael Franti and Spearhead.
The main attraction for me was Ian McNabb - who was on splendid form playing his own material and a couple of cover versions - including a Bob Dylanesque take on the Grease hit - Your The One That I want.
It's the second time I have seen him this year and he just gets better and better. Here's to the gigs in October, when he takes the Icicle Works back out on the road.
The other bands were ok, but the McNabb eclipsed them all.
