Well this is going to prove to be one of the maddest Mad Sundays.

Ok the racing’s all pushed back to today but there will still be a full programme of entertainment at Bushys in Douglas and Port Erin.

1-4pm on the Carole Nash Stage we have the lads from the BIG BEAT

7.30-9.30pm slot will be firm rock favourites LITTLE BITTA ROSIE

A collection of some of the finest and tightest musicians on the Isle.These guys already graced the Carole Nash Stage at the Charity Aid concert on Sunday and finished off the night in style. An early slot for them but guaranteed to be a memorable one.Tough call to miss some racing but for us the music and beer and you come first! All the classic ACDC tracks are here sung perfectly by Johnson-era Ade Bruce.
