Adam Buxton at the 6Music Festival

For the first time, since it was birthed 12 years ago, 6Music held a festival. A good proportion of the BBC has moved it's operation up to Salford so it made sense to hold the festival in Manchester.

Since Adam was instrumental in the very survival of the station, he was invited to perform in their fringe area and join Marc Riley for his Saturday evening show.
