Music journalist has respect for 'very successful' V Festivalpublished at 13:24 British Summer Time 21 August 2017
The music journalist and punk musician John Robb has praised the organisers of the V Festival, for putting on a "very successful" event.
He said it was "very much a mainstream pop festival" and said he had to laugh at the "soap stars you've never heard of" who are given backstage passes.
But he went on to say "it's not easy putting a really good festival on and it's a pretty spectacular affair" and that the V Festival team "make it work".
Quote MessageIt's a very successful festival, it's a very good model of the new kind of festival, the pop festival. It's very different from the kind of old school kind of festivals."
