One of the really nice things about Cambridge is how they use the music between the sets to change the mood and atmosphere from the previous artists to the next.
It requires a lot of skill to make the almost effortless transitions. There was an almost effortless transition amongst the guys that provide the music as well.
Bob Paterson was there as usual, but his usual partner in crime, Mark Simpson, has moved off to new pastures. In came Alan O'Leary to take up where Mark had left off.
Bob has provided us his playlists for a number of years now, so that if there was a song that you particularly liked you could find it. This year he's also added the album that he took the track from so that it's easier to go out and buy.
