Thankfully the Beast from the East and Storm Emma had melted away and the temperature was rising nicely, particularly in the Wedgewood Rooms for Dub Pistols.
This was always going to be a proper Saturday night in Southsea, with the crowd rising from their hibernation and the band perfect for rising to a challenge.
Dub Pistols fired out a smorgasbord of hip-hop, ska, punk and drum and bass, with a healthy smattering of reggae thrown into the melting pot.
Every song hit the mark with verve and energy, and singer Barry Ashworth – the perfect ringmaster leading the charge – was full of energy that soon fed into the crowd as they jumped from the front of the venue to the back. A rowdy rendition of The Stranglers’ Peaches was a particular highlight, before the band finished off the night with a cover of The Specials’ classic Gangsters. As a firm festival favourite, it would be great to see Dub Pistols gracing Victorious Festival

The Dub Pistols are delighted to have curated the Sunday closing party at this years Blisscamp brought to you by the brilliant Blissfields team
Blissfields presents Blisscamp…
Seventeen years ago, we invited some friends round for a few drinks and a singsong around a campfire. Since then we’ve invited thousands of you to Blissfields, opening our doors on two sites, enjoying groundbreaking performances, ridden hot air balloons, walked the trapeze, been in paint fights, dressed as animals, had tractor rides, travelled through time and put on the ultimate house party.
The time though has come to take a short break. In 2018 there won’t be a Blissfields; instead we’re taking it all back to our roots to begin a new event and a new journey together.
