Want to see The Editors, Black Wire, Nine Black Alps, the Paddingtons and The Thrills for free? Best get yerself over to Middlesbrough on Sunday 19th June…
Yep, that’s right: The Middlesbrough Music Live Festival is back, and bigger than ever. Starting at 12 noon and continuing 'til late, 2005 is the free festival’s sixth year and will boast its largest and most eclectic line-up yet with over 100 bands playing ten different stages. It’s organised by Middlesbrough Music Council, who’re expecting over 30,000 people to turn up. The aim is to book bands just before they become massive, which this year means the likes of Towers of London, The Rifles and The Departure are putting in an appearance. Should be quite an event, then…
For further details and a full line-up, get yerself over to middlesbroughmusiclive.co.uk.

Re: 100 bands to play massive free festival in Mid
no tickets needed
no glass bottles on site
obviously the indoor venues have capcities, so certainly for the bigger bands you'll probably need to be inside in good time,

Empire holds 1000
Jumpin Jaks holds 900
Main Outdoor stage 10,000
Town Centre Outdoor stage 5000
Studio 64 Outdoor stage 1500-2000-

Bloody Wildcats of Kilkenny and their damned 'Irish' japes. They must have some serious dirt on someone important in Ten Feet Tall to get on the bill every frigging year. -
