I have been going to Bluestone for around 10 or so years now

At Bluestone five bands play on New Years Eve, with the final one taking us into New Years and beyond.  New Years Day was originally a recovery day, however it has become as big as New Years Eve with four more bands.  Many people who couldn't make the it night before will come out just for the day.

I have been going to Bluestone for around 10 or so years now.  It is put on by the Blues Club to celebrate New Years Eve and is nice and relaxed and cruisy.

I thought I would do the right thing and come out and set tent up the day before.

But New Years Eve was hot and windy and when I returned that day a big wind destroyed tent, rendering it unusable.

Then it was a heat wave right into the night.

I ended up sleeping in a very basic temporary shelter with Jacqui's crew.

It was a big improvement with a full marque this year and the area between that and the old school house contained.

A lot more people camped which was better too.
