The Are You Dead or Alive?
Music Festival 8-9-10 July 2005
A music festival and fringe events to be held at the Flower Pots  in  Cheriton, Hampshire.
Music, networking and cricket in the beautiful Hampshire countryside with a pub with a brewery at its centre –what more could you ask? As Bob Dylan put it–“Don’t think twice, it’s alright”.

I'm going down to Yasgur's farm
Think I'll join a rock and roll band
I'll camp out on the land
I'll try and set my soul free

We are stardust, we are golden
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
