Is It Just the Music? Towards an Understanding of Festival-Goers and Their Experience at UK Music Festivals
Is it just the Music? Towards an Understanding of Festival-goers and their Experience at UK Music Festivals by Alyssa Eve Brown PGCert, BA (Hons), FHEA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire April 2019 i STUDENT DECLARATION FORM Concurrent registration for two or more academic awards I declare that while registered for the research degree, I was with the University’s specific permission, an enrolled student for the following awards: Post Graduate Certificate in Business and Management Research Methods Post Graduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Material submitted for another award I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work Signature of Candidate ______________________________________________________ Type of Award PhD__________________________________________________ School Lancashire School of Business and Enterprise ii Abstract Festivals are an adventure of the emotional and physical senses and can create unforgettable, exciting and thrilling memories of unfamiliar and unique experiences. With music festivals in particular, there is an additional emphasis on the chance to experience live music by often idolised musicians within a temporary community of shared musical interests. However, whilst a music festival may attract visitors through advertising an attractive and appealing line-up of popular acts, this far from guarantees a happy customer. There are many other elements that contribute to and impact upon the experience of the festival-goer (Morgan, 2008: 83). If these elements are managed well, this can result in benefits for both the consumer, through positive emotional and cognitive experiences, and for the organisation through repeat custom, recommendations and increased sales. -

A Five Capitals Investigation Into Festival Impacts
Richard Fletcher A five capitals investigation into festival impacts Dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Master of Science by Research De Montfort University Date of submission: January 2013 Minor revisions completed: June 2013 Sponsored by the Institute of Energy and Sustainable Development ABSTRACT The impact of festivals on contemporary society has proven, through ongoing investigation, to constitute a wide-ranging and highly contrasting set of costs and benefits. The Five Capitals model (Porritt, 2005) presents a comprehensive framework to guide the sustainable development of all products and services, that will be of particular interest when applied to the great variety of festivals, and their associated impacts. A framework will be developed, through which festivals can consider the range of impacts they have on natural, human, social, manufactured and financial sources of capital. The research approach of various festival organisations and of individuals working around festivals is considered throughout, how is knowledge gathered, what do ordering structures create, and what structures are created by this? The framework is applied in as much detail as possible to one festival, demonstrating a practical outcome, discussing the overall value of an integrated approach to reporting and finally suggesting future approaches. This research touches on wider contemporary issues, such as the practical workings of multi or inter-culturalist policies, costs/benefits of mega-events (such as the Olympics, -

Popular Music and Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and Transgender People: an Annotated Bibliography and Discography
Page 1 of 35 Popular Music and Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and Transgender People: An Annotated Bibliography and Discography. Compiled by Walt “Cat” Walker. Approved by the GLBTRT Resources Committee. Last revised January 12, 2017. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 2 I. General Nonfiction 3 II. Memoirs & Biographies 9 III. Fiction 32 IV. Drama 33 V. Children & Teens 34 VI. DVDs 35 Page 2 of 35 Introduction Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people have always participated in creating popular music. In recent years, the visibility of LGBTQ people in the music world has increased, and more popular music has been created that openly describes the LGBTQ experience. There has also been an increase in books and films related to LGBTQ visibility in popular music, both in fiction and nonfiction. This bibliography includes resources about gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons involved in the popular music field. The books have all been published in print, and many of them may also be found as e-books. Separate sections contain memoirs, novels, plays, and children’s and teen books. Several LGBT popular music-related DVDs are also listed. Each book and DVD has a link to the OCLC WorldCat record (when available) where you can see which libraries hold the item. Most of this resource is comprised of a discography of popular music recordings by LGBTQ artists. It is not meant to be complete, but many recordings still available in CD format for each artist are listed, and several are annotated. Many of these performers’ songs can now also be found on streaming music services and online digital music websites. -
