The venue was a big tent with a spacious stage, a dance floor in front of the stage for the many line-dancers, and tables, food stalls, bars and all kind of small shops where they sold Western items as hats, belts, buckles, badges and more.
The band were fantastic, after the great warm-up by Paul Mac Bonvin and his band the audience were in the mood and enjoyed the show to the full. Even here, I spotted familiar faces in the crowd, among them a fellow fan from France. Lots of photos were taken, and I thought this time mine didn't come out too shabby ;)
It was over too soon, and after the encores the excellent festival organisation team handed out wine bottles to the musicians and posed alltogether for a 'good-bye and thank you' photo onstage.
Sue's table was very much in demand, the boys had to sign tons of items and kindly posed for photos. A great festival, nice people and a lot of fun!
This was the only wet night in Switzerland, it was pouring buckets and I hardly made my way back to the car without getting soaked!
