Twisted Wheel @ Osfest 2010, Oswestry 29/05/2010 - and the fans break the crowd barrier!

A rainy day in North Shropshire sees the Twisted Wheel bus head towards their first festival of the Summer season in Oswestry  - Osfest 2010. A new festival on the curcit. 

Starting the set with the crowd favourite 'Shes A Weapon', followed by 'Lucy The Castle' it was soon apparent that Twisted Wheel had a new found energy which the audience picked up on and pretty soon, security had to make emergency measures as the crowd barrier had become under a lot of pressure from the fans enjoying themselves. The pace continued with 'Racket', 'Bad Candy' and 'Big Issue'.

Slowing the pace down (and giving the over worked security guys a break) Jonny wore on a fan's pair of shades to sing 'Bouncing Bomb'. But the lull in the pressure on the crowd barrier was short lived, with the full pelt 'You Stole The Sun' the crowd had become uncontrolable and as the lads started 'Oh What Have You Done' the festival organisers pulled the plug on the set due to health and safety reasons!

A brilliant set by Twisted Wheel had been cut short, the organisers refused to let the band back on stage due to the broken barrier. So.. watch out T in the Park & Y Not Festival - you have been warned!!
