Fabulous eclectic bunch of Kiwi Musicians proving how much talent this wee country really has. Great venue, fantastic weather, well organised fun day in the sun for Cantabrians.

What a fabulous night!! I'm not much of a fan of Mutton Birds (sorry but that's just me) but as for Avalanche City and Miss Gin Wigmore??? WOWZAAAA!!! Freakin' awesome!! Never really heard of Avalanche City until this night and boy was I amazed when they played... so talented. Haven't stopped playing their CD at least every second day since. As for Gin - I could not get over how she actually looks like she's ENJOYING herself on stage! Her energy, crowd involvement, chit-chat, dancing, singing... just an all over AMAZING performance. Can't wait to see who the line-up is next year cos we'll be there with bells on. HIGHLY recommended to EVERYONE!

The postponement for 24 hr was a no-brainer. Sunday night was a beautiful summer evening under the stars, with the 3 acts all living up to expectations. Will be following these performers,,,, till next time! Sitting on the bank is definitely the place to be.

Another wet year!
Still a great night.
Impressed with avalanche city will definitely get more of their music.
Gin was awesome :)
Disappointed that they started earlier than the 6pm start as we missed annah Mac and missed a lot of avalanche city queuing for drinks!

Gin was fantastic she really connected with the crowd & did a great gig.
A bit disappointed with the Mutton Birds- Don McGlashan hasn't changed, but they didn't perform enough of their of their popular hits. Avalanche City were great too as well, but Gin really took the show more internationally apealing.

Gin Wigmore is outstanding - she is fun, funky, funny and lights up the stage. Her voice is incredible - I will go to see her at every possible opportunity.
The supporting acts were good - enjoyed it all, but Gin provided the zap with her incredible energy.
Superb night out - gorgeous setting, great crowd, easy access.

First time to one of the Villa Maria concerts and very sad that it was the last one of summer 2012 but will definately go next year to as many as possible. Avalanche City was brilliant, Mutton Birds was good and Gin was fantastic. Such a feel good concert and really well run. Great for people of all ages.

The atmosphere was great...nice family evening out, but it did get cold once the sun set. Maybe starting at an earlier time would be good to capture more of the sun. The crowd were great and just the right amount of people. Not to squashy and people not sitting right on top of you. The setting Magic.

Thankfully the promoters got lucky with the weather and despite the concert being postponed by a day it did nothing to dampen the amazing music and vibe of the three great acts.
Delicious wine, great parking arrangements and speedy and friendly bag checking!
THANK YOU

Despite the rainy weather, it was an amazing evening of entertainment. The venue was magical, the sound and lights were perfect and the acts were all top class. Thank you to the promoters for starting 30 minutes early. Everyone was relaxed and happy, despite the un-summerlike weather.

Best of all was Gin Wigmore - she is super talented and such a joy to watch perform live. She sounds just like her recorded music, but even better to watch her energy on stage. What a trooper to have kept on playing encore after encore.

Only criticism was parking - those who arrived early were sent way out the back of the paddock, but if you arrived late, you got to park up close. Should have been the other way round. Wonderfully helpful, friendly staff and security. Will be back next year!

I was pleased with all artists performance except Gin's constant use of the F word, very unprofessional especially in light of the amount of children there and right under her nose at the edge of the stage. disapointing and unnecessary behaviour.

Fantastic that this event was postponed to a glorious Sunday. (The only improvement on this would have been that it was an afternoon event rather go on into the chilly night.)
The venue is very well run and the programme run pretty much on time. The MC was very clear and informative without the usual waffle.
All Acts were thoroughly enjoyed so a very successful concert as far as we were concerned.

What a wonderful event! Delaying the event from Saturday to Sunday night was perfect as it was a calm night to be listening to amazing singers and chiling out with friends!

Thanks also to Ticketmaster who communicated via email and also followed up with a telephone call to inform about the postponement of the concert - you guys rock regarding customer service!!
