The final countdown to the Audlem Music Festival

It's the final countdown to the Audlem Music Festival which opens in just five days time. Friday 25th May opens with Flight 505 and Nemo & The Trent Vale Poet playing at the Public Hall. Tickets are just £5 and the doors open at 8.00pm. The programme describes Flight 505 as a "killing combination, these are guys you pray your old man won't turn out like!" Nemo play Rock & Roll with dodgy pound-shop coloured flashing lights while The Trent Vale Poet has been performing his witty thought-provoking brand of poetry for a number of years. It all sounds quite a night!

The pubs are all laying on music too with Audlem's very own Duffey Boys booked for The Lord Combermere from 9.00pm; local favourites Gambler at the Shroppie Fly from 9.30pm and Blue C, made up of Raphael Callaghan on vocals, slide guitar and harmonica and Christine Purnell on bass playing at The Bridge from 9.00pm.

Tomorrow, we will feature the programme for the Saturday. You can also reach the special Audlem Festival website by clicking just above the Calendar of Events section on the homepage of Audlem Online. The Festival site gives you all the details of what's on over the Bank Holiday weekend in Audlem from 25th to 28th May. There's even a 'countdown' timer so you can see the minutes ticking away to what promises to be a great music festival.

The main sponsors of the Festival are Audlem Parish Council and ADAS, the Audlem District Amenities Society
