Magic Octagon Win Place on Festival Bandstand

Magic Octagon Win Place on Festival BandstandWell done to Magic Octagon who wowed the judges sufficiently last night to gain themselves a place on the Bandstand at the Isle of Wight Festival next month (yes, it’s only six weeks away).

Commiserations to the other finalists, The Kurves, The Shanklin Freak Show, Siniez and Kids Will Be Skeletons who we hear put in fantastic performances, making it all the harder for the judges to come to a decision.

If you were lucky enough to be at the Studio last night and fancy sending in your thoughts of the event, as usual, get in touch

    Congratulations to the band that won. But I cannot help but believe that the judges had an idea of who they were going to be choosing beforehand.
