I was invited along to the Rickmansworth Festival on Saturday by Wired. I was there to cover their performance off and on the stage.
Since Wired were headlining I also had quite a few bands playing before them, one of them was a Ska band called True Beat. I was very impressed with their stage performance and couldn’t help getting some shots which I’m proud of. Let me know what you think!?

The Red Bullets have recently been touring the Alps, so when I heard they were home and playing their first gig back in the UK in Buckingham, I was down there in a shot!
