With the new MUTINY FESTIVAL offering up a stunning line-up of punk and ska, old and new, and supporting a very worthy cause, this could be one of the festivals of next year!
On 16th May 2009, the newly refurbished Bridlington Spa in East Yorkshire will be flooded with punk rockers for an all-dayer event (2pm – midnight) celebrating the strength of underground music. The impressive bill includes Stiff Little Fingers, Neville Staple (ex-The Specials), Anti-Nowhere League, UK Subs, Goldblade, Strawberry Blondes and Middle Finger Salute. There will also market stalls and children under 16 are welcome (with adult supervision). Tickets are priced at a very reasonable £30 for adults and £20 for under 16’s.
The festival fully supports The Sophie Lancaster Foundation and S.O.P.H.I.E. campaign (Stamp Out Prejudice, Hatred and Intolerance Everywhere). Sophie Lancaster was beaten to death by five youths in Bacup park for her goth image when she tried to stop them attacking her boyfriend Rob. Mutiny Festival is the chance to celebrate the punk scene and the entire punk/goth/alternative community – something Big Cheese is completely supportive of. See you at Mutiny Fest ’09!
