Rob	Oct 20 2008 2:53 PM Got to say thanks for putting on another great reggaefest - I know how much time and effort goes into this, and it's so very much appreciated. Lots of new and established acts to see and, apart from the race against time towards the end on Sunday, it went like clockwork from our perspective. Great shows, loved the food at The Salsa (and being able to spot well-known faces as they came and went!)and look forward to coming to Newcastle for more great reggae music in future.
