Carlisle Blues & Rock Festival 2014
This year the festival was briefly put under threat, as the venue for the last 6 to 7 years (The Swallow Hotel) went into administration. However the organisers managed to find two other venues at relatively short notice. In truth neither of them were anywhere near as good as the hotel, but as it meant the difference to having the festival on in the first place, then we can be thankful that they managed to get accommodation at all. Next year will be interesting, to see where they can set up. On the plus side the two new locations, were literally right round the corner from our Hotel, so no complaints re: travelling to the place.
This year bands included:
