The Once Live at Ramsbottom Festival 2011

I was stuck in Papertown (Bury) for five months last year, but at least I caught the 'Rammy' Festival on the (Folk) Sunday.  I thought it was going to be just a plod-a-long day leading up to The Waterboys, but was I wrong.  I'm just glad I arrived really early, and caught The Once.  Old Leonard Cohen songs, old fishing songs from their native Newfoundland, this band was fantastic.  I love it when I come across such sublimity by chance.  If you've never heard of The Once, make sure you check them out on Youtube, you won't be disappointed.
