Mr Blind Pig.com INSIDE:OUTSIDE FESTIVAL, Reading. August- October.

With money issues becoming an increasing problem, festival ticket prices going through the roof and the washout of the British summer, this year has seen scores of festivals across the country fail to sell out their tickets, fail to pay their acts, or fail to even happe...n. Local Reading promoters Mr Blind Pig, have come to the rescue, announcing the mammouth Outside:Inside Festival, across an impressive 3 months of partying, an eclectic mix of stages, and a jaw dropping amount of acts and DJ's.

" it is a shame to see so many festivals come a cropper this year, perhaps the commercial aspect at most festivals these days, with the corporate advertising, the expensive by-on-site policy with alcohol and the steeply rising ticket prices, you can comprehend why people are choosing to stay away.This is why we have pushed to bring the Outside: Inside Festival to Reading, allowing easier to get to (and mainly free) stages across the venues and outside space in Reading City Centre" Says Jack Hepplewhite from Mr Blind Pig.com, organisers of the festival.

The various 'tents' will host an array of mixed acts and will include a Swing & Tea tent, special BBC Introducing 'tent' recording local up and coming acts to air on The Session, BBC Berkshire radio show, big monthly after-party, the early evening garden party stage, with web facilities offering the festival goers the chance to comment on the official festival blog, see images from the festival, see the most updated festival line up including a map of the festival site, there will also be a members section where you can sign up to receive free music podcasts and downloads.

Participating venues include, Oakford Social Club, Plug N Play Studios, Pitcher & Piano, Varsity Bar, Mango Bar and Bar Four. For more information go to www.mrblindpig.com
