Praise for Rewind crowds amid hints it may be back

Praise for Rewind crowds amid hints it may be back

The organiser of the Rewind Festival, which saw more than 20,000 descend on Scone Palace, has said he was delighted with the event.

Director David Heartfield told The Courier the 1980s event went “brilliantly” and did not rule out a return to Perthshire.

Revellers took a step back in time to enjoy bands including the Human League, Billy Ocean, Kid Creole and the Coconuts and Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet.

Many people took the opportunity to dress up and police reported only a couple of arrests, which were for alleged disorder and dishonesty.

Campers left the festival site with many believing it will return possibly in two years.

Mr Heartfield said, “We will announce details of next year’s festival fairly shortly we still have one or two details to iron out.

“The Olympics is on next year so we may leave it until the year after.” He added, “The festival went brilliantly. We’re very pleased with it. The public had a great time.”

He also praised the crowds, adding, “It was a trouble-free event and we saw no traffic chaos. Scottish crowds are notorious for getting behind bands and they were right up for it, singing along.

“There were many different highlights but, for me, Billy Ocean and The Human League were brilliant, and Kim Wilde put on a great show.”

Audrey Orr (40), of Forfar, who works for Angus Council, was one of the campers and vowed she will be back if the event returns to Perthshire.

Mrs Orr said, “It’s been great. We were one of the first in the queue to arrive and one of the last to leave. I’ve heard that it may be back in two years’ time and we’ll definitely get tickets for it.”

She added, “For me Billy Ocean stole the show and Kim Wilde was brilliant on Sunday. Toyah Wilcox was also great. We all camped but it was good fun.”
