Sounds on the Downs 2009, Nottingham University, 11th June

Yet another successful year of activity, activism and musical melodies from (as they correctly publicise it) "everyone's favourite renewably powered, creative, vegetarian, community festival"; featuring 2 music stages. It was purely on the spur of the moment that I decided to film, after the miserable weather earlier that week threatened a wash-out. But apart from a few gusts of wind (see if you can spot me struggling to hold the camera!) the day was glorious - which was great since it was all powered by solar panels from Generation X and pedal power. Shame I couldn't get more from the acoustic tent, but you get a seashanty treat of a cover version from Nottingham's very own pirate band. If more people could get together like this we may be able to save the world after all! PS: This wasn't filmed in HD, but it's the only way I've been able to get these 16/9 SD footage properly displaying.
