Dub Pistols Barry Ashworth makes his Trystonbury Debut

DUB PISTOLS head gunslinger Barry Ashworth will make his Trystonbury Festival debut this friday 23rd  September 2011

Trystonbury is a party to celebrate the end of the festival and outdoor party season, held as close to the Autumn Equinox as possible. Like the Secret Garden Party, Trystonbury’s origins are as a private birthday party for the site’s owner.  The festival’s name combines the owner’s family name with a part of Glastonbury (as a byword for a festival).  This year’s event is from Friday 23rd – Sunday 25th September. A small and well-kept secret, the festival is held on a patch of ancient woodland in Berkshire steeped in history and folklore, a truly magical place which through the centuries has been the site of a medieval hermitage and much later, a royal residence.  An invitational event now in its 7th year. 2011 is the second year that the event has invited a few more friends and 200 tickets made available.

DUB PISTOLS Barry Ashworth @ Bestival 2011

Bestival have announced that DUB PISTOLS head honcho Barry Ashworth will perform a dj show on the Afterburner stage on sunday evening, Barry is one of the few artists that has had the honour of performing at every Bestival and Camp Bestival since the festival started.

 

 Arcadia’s arena has been one of the undisputed highlights of last two years at Bestival. A 360 degree DJ stage which shoots giant 30ft flame balls from its spire and is surrounded by 12 fire breathing lamppost tree sculptures, along with high-powered lighting… and all beating in time with the music played by a DJ. 
It’s back for 2011 but in a new location deep into the campsites.
Also back for 2011 are the legendary Lords of Lightning – two guys who harness 4 million volts of raw electricity… and then fire it at each other… using their heads. Check this to see what we mean!
