This summer we sent four up for it lads from Newcastle - Alex, John, Stuart and Kris - out on the road to take in the sights, sounds and smells at ten of the best festivals taking place this summer in Carling's Festival Postcards including Isle Of Wight Festival, V Festival, Ibiza Rocks and Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival with each episode screened on Channel 4 every Wednesday night and also shown right here on Carling.com in our TV player.
Over the summer the lads took on loads of bands at Scissor, Paper, Stone including Kasabian, The Maccabees, The Go! Team, Jack Penate, CSS and Kate Nash ending in a tight finish with the lads winning the series 6-4, they also made an appearance at the NME Signing Tent at V Festival in front of their fans (well, they managed to attract a few stragglers!), played live on stage at The Big Chill and turned into pirates for the fancy dress parade at Bestival.
You can now watch all ten of the lads' Festival Tips in our Carling TV Player to make sure you're fully prepared for 2008!
Thanks to Tangerine Fields for putting the lads up over the summer in their wonderful boutique camping sites which are now available at all leading UK festivals.
