Call Of The Wild Festival Announces Sunday Headliner

Hardcore Superstar Announced As Sunday Headliner

Call Of The Wild Festival

Lincs Showground: 24th-26th May 2019

One of their biggest hits is ‘We Don’t Celebrate Sundays‘ but without a shadow of doubt, Hardcore Superstar will be joined by thousands of festival-goers as the curtain closes on the inaugural Call of the Wild Festival at Lincolnshire Showground. Providing the ultimate feel-good party to end the weekends’ festivities.

The Call Of The Wild organisers are delighted to have Swedish Rock icons Hardcore Superstar complete the Main Stage (now named Kilmister Stage as a tribute to the legend of Lemmy) headliners along with The Wildhearts, who release their first original line up studio album in 20 years in 2019, and The Virginmarys who are riding a very welcome wave of high critical acclaim for new album Northern Sun Sessions.

The organisers are equally thrilled to confirm Tax The Heat as special guests on Saturday Kilmister Stage.

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
