The Beached Festival was a free festival held annually in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. After six years it had become the largest free festival on England's east coast. It last took place in its original format in 2008. ==History== The festival started in 2001 as a small gig which gained some interest from local bands and DJs. During the second year The Libertines played without their front man. In 2005 the festival lasted two extra days, one of which was a movie night and the other an orchestral night. In 2006 a Big Band played instead of the orchestra. To fund the festival a small grant was obtained from Scarborough Borough Council and the rest came from corporate sponsorship.〔(BBC's coverage of Beached 2006 )〕 As the festival expanded more popular bands appeared on the beached stage including The Libertines, The Fratellis, Electric Eel Shock (Who appeared in 2003 and then returned in 2005 to play with The West Yorkshire Symphony Orchestra), The Enemy, Thunder, Parva (now the Kaiser chiefs), The Bluetones, The Quireboys and Nine Black Alps between the years 2001 and 2006. From the 2005 festival onwards, the first evening was a film night, with films such as Little Voice and The Blues Brothers being shown. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beached Festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
