UK Fresh 97 Programme

If you had a time machine and went back to Folkestone in the UK on valentines day 1997 sometime early afternoon, you’d see a red nosed skinhead in a work jacket suffering from sinusitis that made his FACE CREAK in a queue of other True School heads waiting to get into the best event I’ve ever been to.
Fresh 97 ran for 3 days and was a legendary jam. There is no real way I can capture the essence of that jam by writing, putting videos up, literally there’s nothing I can do. If you were there maybe this post will jog some memories. Basically when I was there I decided to get as many acts to sign my programme as possible, I got most of ‘em… So the other week I scanned my entire programme, trimmed the images in photoshop then created a PDF document from the images. So I’ve decided to put it up for download for your perusal. All the images are high res so this PDF with only 8 images weighs in at just under 30MB.
I hope you enjoy a slice of UK History, maybe leave a comment if you were there?
I was going to post where the DVD is available from, but the place I got mine from doesn’t exist any more and I ended up giving it away in a competition on the radio! (I’ll be asking him for a copy!)
Here’s some YouTube action of Trix presenting “Out Of Control”
So anyway, enough twoddle, here’s the download of the PDF:

The best bit on the vid was the ‘Electro Rock’ old skool reunion. Big up Trix and Krazy Kid AKA K.I.D. Rock City Crew. Nottingham up in there like a pap smear, ya get me.
Any chance of putting up “Back to Basics”?
That was the stronger track.
