The crowds turned out in force for the Cookson Country Festival in South Shields and here’s the scene on the day Go West and Dr and the Medics performed.
Our Shields Gazette photographers got pictures from the stage, the crowds and the fun everyone had as they listened to the music.
All we need now is your memories of the day. Share them by emailing [email protected]
