Guess you're all going to have to miss out then and you won't hear about a major new festival being planned for next year, either.

Like it or not, social networking is the modern way to market events and through Facebook our next event in April is almost fully booked.

[Nic Jarman]

If it is a major new festival then you will have a website that can be linked from here - check with Rick.

Oh dear dose that mean I won't hear of all the thousands of events and shows that manage to get publicity without facebook.

Somehow I don't think so
