Greetings everyone, | |

You have been unusually silent, vanished from the face of a smile, declining libido | |
| Keane | 16 April 2009 21:07:39 |
You become indecisive, there is no self-confidence? | |

Hi all, I am so pleased to hear that maker is still open-I went there many times during the 1970's with my school on holiday. I returned when my daughter was almost two years old in 1989. | |

Maker on.. Maker off (as far as we are aware - The Maker Green Team that is) there won't be a Maker Sunshine Festival in 2009. | |
| Annie | 30 January 2009 22:54:59 |
Maker sets the standard of how all festivals should be - it's got to run -it's one of the best! | |
| steve | 28 January 2009 23:12:40 |

| Hayley Savage | 24 January 2009 11:21:52 |
Maker will be on this year! deffinately. I talked to my stepmum who knows loobs, and although a loss was made last year, this year will still be on, though maybe slightly smaller. hmmm. Maker fest = the best thing in the last 3 summers. =) i need to buy new wellies.... | |
| Alice | 24 January 2009 02:41:44 |
Is is true that maker isn't on this year? I'm so gutted if that's true, it's such an institution, summer won't be the same without it :( | |

| Justin | 04 December 2008 12:25:27 |
Does anyone have any photos of "The Old Signs" performing in the cabaret tent? | |
| kimy | 22 November 2008 19:13:16 |
Maker festival is a brilliant place to be, everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is second to none! | |

Many struck by the fact that the third level of mortality after cardiovascular diseases and cancer is diabetes. Cure this disease is virtually impossible, however, the results of studies show that if maintain the level of sugar in the blood may be closer to the norm, it is possible to greatly reduce the probability of occurrence of complications caused by diabetes. This, in addition to traditional means, well helps Noni juice. | |

| Pete the 'chef du bar' | 29 August 2008 22:15:52 |
Just got back to Brighton after a 4 week tour of cornish and devnish festivals .... they all had mud n chilled good vibes but Maker this year was the tops .... it was the best Maker vibe ever (I was there in 1999) like Glasto in the 70's n 80's with folks there just to enjoy being there.... best bits were the caberet big top, the hemp space, heligan honey, dreadzone, Mark's chokkie cake, mad dog, black sheep ale, circus of sound, the samosas in the accoustic tent, the heathens, Geoff's coat, entity, coffee at veggie stall by the capn's house, kangaroo moon, the smoothie maker mono-cyclist, mc fashion + the dj set, sundays reggae party at the random (wish I could have stayed longer frodo) and the smiley people evrywhere +++++++ of course the bar staff ... thanx guys, great job ..... the worst bits ... the mud come Sunday and the few folks who cant do festivals properly! | |
| Pete | 26 August 2008 13:08:12 |

Enjoyed Imperial Leisure a massive amount, great vibe, Freeshly Squeezed were just what I needed by that point. | |
| Gary Dean & Dan | 07 August 2008 21:23:52 |
Totally awesome once again just gets better and better. We're having a slight problem remembering things tho but hey thats part of it. Dreadzone was amazing, Circus Of Sound in the hemp space was totally amazing and well the whole damn lot was amazing. Whens the next one next month rite???? | |
| Johno | 07 August 2008 20:17:14 |
Had a wicked time, still recovering! Loads of new things to be excited about this year. Got the feeling the tired energy towards 'Maddog' was a mutual thing among most people I spoke to! Freshly Squeezed funked the roof off, those guys were ridiculous, Amazing! Had no experience of violence, just merry people havin loads of fun together! Thanks for a brill time :-) | |
| A Trustee | 06 August 2008 22:55:49 |
Thanks a million - Loobs, Pete and all the team. Loads of happy faces in the rain, and the sun shone for the final evening. | |
| Zak | 06 August 2008 22:52:50 |
I thought this year's maker was hella good! Spec "The Random Arms" Bar & The Energy Room & The Foam Party On Sunday Night In The Random Arms Was Awesome Aswell :P Same Again Next Year I Say, All The Bands/DJ's Were Good In The Energy Room, The Only Probably I'd Say Is No Gaps Between Them lol Chris Had To Set Up So Therefore Some Bands Didn't Have A Full Hour Set, But Still, Energy Room/The Random Arms Was Still The Best Venue. Hemp Space/The Bunkers As Well Were Good. Cant Wait Til Next Year =] Got A New Tent Already (A Decent One Compared To This Year) lol And Cheers To TJ For Helping Me Out With Lighting And Cheers To Pete For Getting Me Involved With Lighting This Year, Hope Everyone Liked It, If Anyone Has An Tips :P Feel Free To Contact Me =] | |
| Emma | 06 August 2008 22:34:04 |
Hey, Amazing festival as always, can't wait for next year. Does anyone know the name of the band that were playing in the Hemp Space early monday morning? I met one of the guys from the band and want to check he's alright, he looked pretty comatose last time I saw him. Cheers. | |
| Pete | 06 August 2008 17:23:29 |
Well that was Maker Sunshine Festival for another year... | |
| the other one | 06 August 2008 16:22:22 |
Maker Maker Maker! is amazing. | |

All Chavs just need to be loved they have no life and dont no any better | |
| Tanya | 06 August 2008 12:58:04 |
Music is My Poison DJ's were all great too! | |
| Howie | 06 August 2008 09:49:03 |
Excellent festival, - as always. The rain made no real difference to us and our 10-year old enjoyed it. I have to make a couple of comments: The entire water system failing just beore the last night's partying began was bad (and possibly dangerous for some - if you know what I mean). It was never repaired. There were too many cars allowed to drive through the site too fast and they could never have stopped for children in the way in that mud. It would be better if there was a tent in the arena where people could shelter if they don't want to cram into one of the music stage tents in the rain. More places to sit down, - inside and outside the marquees. Lastly, jut too many yob teenage chavs in Nike and Adidas stuff. Put the prices up for them and turn it into a nicer, more adult-balanced festival, - please! | |
| me | 05 August 2008 23:45:39 |
the festival had alot more chavvy feel to it this year, a couple of my mates got punched for no reason other than that they were there. that was in the main stage aswell, but i suppose security cant be everywhere. | |
| karen | 05 August 2008 22:48:09 |
The festival itself was brilliant as it always is. Although I found three discrepencies from over anxious security running it. On one occassion afriend of mine had her finger bitten so badly that has needed to have it treated with very strong penicillin. Lets hope it mends and she doesn't need it cutting open and draining as the doctor explained might happen. Please, please, it is so important that these festivals are not taken advantage by over zealous security when not necessary. Sorry to report this but unless we want festivals such as the maker to stay fun, friendly and safe, these incidents need to be addressed. | |
| pete | 05 August 2008 21:23:50 |
WILFREDO! WILFREDO! WILFREDO! ANYONE KNOW OF A WEBSITE FOR HIM? CABARET TENT FANTASTIC... TOPS... FRESHLY SQUEEZED JUST AWESOME. CHEERS TO ALL INVOLVED. | |
| martin | 05 August 2008 21:16:34 |
despite previous comment,I still had a great time, cabaret tent was a big plus, will still come back next year | |
| qkrys | 05 August 2008 20:54:33 |
Had a great time, all the family and friends around. Friend had a lovely Indian Head Massage. Great music, loved the new cabaret tent - wicked line-up. Shame about the weather but still didn't want to leave. No experience of violence and thieving - had two chairs nicked a couple of years ago but you've got to expect it. Got loads of nice photos - posted on Picassa. | |
| Andy | 05 August 2008 20:04:28 |
Hi | |
| Tanya | 05 August 2008 18:18:17 |
What a great weekend! We were there for the 5th year running, with our three children, and we thought it was the best ever this year! Mad Dog and Dreadzone were awesome, the Energy Room was alot of fun, the Cabaret tent was great, and the vibe was balanced and groovy. Been reading the comments about the youngsters - can't say we saw any big problems, and we did feel that there were lots of older people looking out for the younger ones. Thank you Loobs and Pete and all who have worked so hard to make it a success. x P.S The kids all say that the Kangaroos were brilliant! | |
| Jodie Chubb | 05 August 2008 17:51:21 |
Maker Camp Was Good This Year Despite The Rain And Mud Everyone Seemed To Be Enjoying The Festival.Mad Dog Once Again Was The Best Band Of The Festival. Love Them.Cabaret Tent Was Absolutley Amazing I Loved The Stand Up Comedy Not To Sure About The Strippers! Thanks For A Lovely Festival. | |
| Paul Chubb | 05 August 2008 17:38:48 |
Hi all had a great maker this year Dreadzone where by far the best band i saw just like to say well done for adding the cabaret tent this year could be twice the size next year as it was full all weekend. Open mic was disappointing as only one and half hours allocated each day and then to find out Circus of sound took up 40 mins of open mic time whilst playing main stage and hemp tent, nothing against them but i do think open mic should be for people not performing at the festival!. Would like to see the energy room used for some more local bands as each time i looked in on sunday it was empty. | |
| ren | 05 August 2008 16:35:46 |
just got back from an decent festival experience (the rain won't dampen my spirits!), but once again there was more than enough people there trying to ruin it. we witnessed a fight between two 10 year olds, one holding a broken bottle and another swinging a BLOODY HAMMER!! no joke. the amount of times we saw kids picking on / fighting other kids in the campsite was disgraceful. we were even assaulted by some scousers who mistook us with some of the locals for throwing bottles at their kids!! i dont think we will return next year as it felt like a very unsafe place to go and the vibe generally was not very nice. Despite some good bands (and a big thumbs up to the cabaret stage!) the line-up was quite poor. I may return if i hear next year's festival has sorted out the many lows this years fest had. | |
| lurch | 05 August 2008 16:17:51 |
Maker was ace sonic boom six all the way | |
| Tamsin | 05 August 2008 15:14:30 |
Another brilliant festival, despite the weather doing its best to ruin it. Spirits were high, and the bands were brilliant. The caberet tent was a definate high note with some of the acts. | |
| colette mike and ella | 05 August 2008 12:53:01 |
what a great time was had by all | |
| martin | 05 August 2008 10:24:21 |
fully aggree with comments from D, lack of security inside the marquees and in the tented areas enabled some of the more undesirable little scum bag chavs to take advantage | |
| fan1 | 05 August 2008 02:50:20 |
freshly squeezed were amazing, enough to rival mad dog and a headlining band for the future. awesome | |
| Gordon Shumway | 05 August 2008 00:22:36 |
Why did Black Friday get added to the line-up so last minute on the website. They didnt play anyway. | |
| D | 04 August 2008 19:53:27 |
Enjoyed the festival, but spoilt by chavs robbing tents and intimidating younger festival goers, our friend had her back pack stolen from her tent and we had people trying to get in our tent with us still in it.. As befroe we enjoyed mostly but spoilt by feral thugs , perhaps a bit more security at night visible to deter the scummy tent thieves, will not be coming back, but good luck to organisers, and a great site | |
| Clive | 04 August 2008 19:30:46 |
Hey !! Thanks for the chance to play at the fest.should of headlined, and we played for free !!!!!! Freshly squeezed.. | |
| dan | 04 August 2008 18:52:13 |
oh and the animal people were hilarious! | |
| dan | 04 August 2008 18:48:33 |
Maker is over for another year! I feel a bit sad... And very spaced due to a lack of sleeping on the last night. | |
| Tasha | 04 August 2008 16:13:34 |
would just like 2 say, despite the rain, we had a groovtastic time, great bands, n groovy people, we will see you next year! | |
| muddygirl | 04 August 2008 14:36:29 |
I just had to write and say how FABULOUS that 007 band were last night in the Energy Room. That keyboard player was HOT!! | |
| Karen | 04 August 2008 13:33:41 |
Makers is allways a great gathering but I believe it would atract more people if there was a tent for dance/trance as when they played this type of music briefly during intervals everyone loved it and spirits were lifted. Maybe there could be a tent by the bunkers for people who dont want to sleep but dance the night away. | |
| millbrook mad bikers | 03 August 2008 16:29:51 |

| ren | 31 July 2008 14:13:55 |
ok so my comment was a bit out of order and not fully explained. my main problem is with the cawsanders (and we know which ones) that cause the trouble. stealing, trashing peoples tents, etc etc. theyre a bloody nuisance. im from torpoint myself and have been to every maker so i know first hand who the "troublemakers" that oli is on about are. doesnt matter now. will be there later tonight even if the weather is rubbish. | |
| young ned | 31 July 2008 13:58:40 |
I spoke to Black Friday and they said they haven't been asked to play this year ? Poor Show!!!! | |
| jen | 31 July 2008 08:22:25 |
The Random Arms is where its at!! | |
| eteP | 31 July 2008 01:54:56 |
Never mind the weather...as long as we're together..! | |
| Count Arthur Strong | 30 July 2008 21:15:09 |
On the Maker website, the links on the 'how to get there' page don't work. I.e. you can't click on the 'liftshare' or 'S E Cornwall Map' links. | |
| Karen | 30 July 2008 21:12:28 |
Famous five plus a few more looking forward to Maker for the 1st time,Hope its worth it just looking at the forecast !!!!! Wish us Luck x | |
| spangle | 30 July 2008 12:42:05 |
well it says you are but you know otherwise. very odd.... | |
| helen Black friday | 29 July 2008 22:37:04 |
I don't understand! am I playing or not?!! | |
| TJ | 29 July 2008 20:08:21 |

| laula | 29 July 2008 16:09:51 |
does anyone know if a band called not now bernard are playing? cos one of the band members told me theyre playing this year and its not on the lineup. just wondered. | |
| Pete | 28 July 2008 22:36:11 |
We did try to get Show of Hands a couple years ago after seeing them at Eden sessions - didn't work out tho bit expensive and busy. Great band tho just been given their Best of Album (thanks to all the Davies). | |
| JO-JO | 26 July 2008 11:01:59 |
Is it still Half Price for local people this year ? | |
| young ned | 25 July 2008 12:52:53 |
Where's Black Friday ? They were by far one of the best bands last year! Thats one of the mains reasons a lot of us were going. Does anyone know if there playing? Cheers. | |
| andrew | 22 July 2008 14:16:15 |

Your site is amazing. I would like to suggest you to include one more section in your site about writing services such as term paperwriting, essay writing and thesis writing | |
| a person who disagrees with ren | 21 July 2008 16:07:49 |
why are we tits just because we live local, its a local festival and its the outsiders that ruin it with there un-holy antics, maker is a sacred drinking ground for locals and i vote to put vikings on the gates to keep out people from far a-field, i love pete too | |
| ren | 19 July 2008 23:53:35 |
so ollie says that they haven't put on the usual energy room stuff because it attracts the trouble makers! well, the troublemakers are the tits from cawsand, millbrook and torpoint who are gonna be there no matter what the line-up!! | |
| Bluejuice | 18 July 2008 09:24:40 |
This will be my second year at Maker and I cant wait! This is such a lovely relaxed gathering. I love the bunkers, please say that they are going to be open again this year.Glad to see the jester is going to be around the festival again! I'll paint yer face if the queue is busy Mr Jester! | |

i know you've heard it alot, but damn, getting rid of the usual energy room stuff is a badddd move. one day of rock bands, and not even putting any of the good locals ones in (i see that oli has managed to get his own band on the lineup again) is upsetting. this festival was always good for supporting the local bands and showing what they can do. now we just have dj's instead. boooooooooooooooooooo. | |

| dan | 12 May 2008 23:55:45 |
no three daft monkeys, pentorr or black friday this year? what am I to do? is that the complete lineup or will more be added? | |
| Robbie | 11 May 2008 11:31:20 |
Just about to order tickets for this years event and I thaught I'd let you know what a fantastic time our family had last year regardless of the weather.It kind of made it even more memorable. Thanks once again and see you all there. | |
| Daryn | 29 April 2008 08:41:07 |
The Maker Green Team still has a few places left within the team rota at this summers Maker Sunshine Festival. From we're I come from I'd certainly like to see more local Rame residents involved, particularity 'young people' at this summers event. Last year the Maker Green Team achieved a 70% recycling and re-use rate at Maker Heights. This summer I'm hoping to top this further with the inclusion of 'food waste collection'. We now have the means to deal with this waste and turn this stuff into power and as a by product, 'compost' material'. All very exciting indeed! | |
| Pete | 15 April 2008 09:34:21 |
Energy Room will still be active with plenty of mosh mania Friday night! - we've not changed it completely...just added a few extras with some funky dance and dubb for good measure...Change is good - stops it getting stale:)) | |

I can see why the tickets have gone up but its quite savage, i've been attending for the last 2years and its been all good. Its just because of some blummin swilies that its doing it. i think some of us should get discount! hehehe. Geddon, gunna love this year! | |

Sorry the website has been down for so long but rest assured we've not been slack on planning this year's fest. Massive line-up brewing courtesy of PMC, quality workshops, plenty of new feaures for this year and all the old faves...... | |
