What is Fordfest?
In early 2004 Mark was traveling home from working in London, when he saw Doug whose bike had broken down with a punctured tyre. While giving Doug a lift home Mark discovered that he was in a band called "Retroactive".
That June "Retroactive" performed at a gig for Mark and his mates, where Mark, Angie and Doug (aka M.A.D.) first talked about the possibility of a Charity Music Festival.
In Sept 2004 just 3 months later, in a field in Fordham, provided by Mr Roger Turner, a host of bands performed 12 hours of varied music for next to nothing except a few expenses.
This was the birth of Fordhamfest!!
