Perfect weather, great organisation, great line-up for Sunday's "Classic Rock" day...
Def Leppard were surprisingly superb as headliners (saved the best sound for themselves, but that's the norm for the last band...)

Whitesnake - good. Mr Coverdale can't hit the high notes without his band detuning a couple of semi-tones these days, but still a showman and genuinely nice guy. Shame about the interminable guitar solos and pointless drum solo. When you have a relatively short set time, fans wanna hear songs, not twiddly diddly guitar duels for 10 minutes!

ZZ Top - absolute legends! So cool and laid back it's untrue. Fabulous furry white guitars for "Legs"!
Journey - enjoyable set. Classic tunes. Great singer soundalike to Steve Perry. Crap drum sound!Skin - superb! 2nd best band on the day! Wonderful and also very genuine and likeable band.
Tesla - disappointing. Didn't play their best stuff. "Hang Tough" from Great Radio Controversy was woefully missing from the set!
