This is an event held in Fallowfield, Manchester in the UK. Happening this week!
It's not lots of people freezing their tits off in "borrowed" tents in a muddy fields. It's where all of the pubs and bars in the centre (about 8 of them within 1/2 a mile of each other) put on free gigs that anyone can come along to. The bands are not usually that big or successful but you'll always have a few good surprises in there. Who's to say which of them are just waiting to sign that lucrative contract.
