The BBs set up in front of the fireplace
The BBs at Hengrave Hall, Hengrave, Suffolk - 18th August 2013
The BBs are playing at the rather smart Hengrave Hall - a former monastery and once visited by Elizabeth I - a few miles outside Bury St. Edmunds, where the "Green Room" is certainly a step up from the usual breezeblock back-stage cubicle on offer. On the downside, there's a noise limiter fitted, so Hentry brings his electronic kit, which can be turned down, unlike the real thing.

Max roams around
Henry sets his 'electro' kit up
Watching the service from the back room
We're setting up at the same time as the caterers
Impressive mediaeval windows
Bistro café tables through mediaeval glass
The corridors of HEngrave Hall
The band does some sound-checking
The caterers get ready
The Green Room, which we didn't end up using
Catering in action
A stack of used champagne glasses
Max lurks, like a Labrador waiting for floor-scraps
Jo sits on the subwoofer
Stained glass from 1521
The windows again
The stage is set
Max hangs out
Henry and Rob
The back of Hengrave Hall
A little outhouse
A slight scary-looking scultpure of some monks
Max, Rob and Henry scope out the cheese table
The band hangs around near more food
Hint: you can use the left and right cursor keys to navigate between albums, and between photos when in the photo viewer
