Sticking with small crowd events in the Basque country the first weekend of June sees the old guard of the Medway scene descending on the coastal town of San Sebastian (about an hour from Bilbao) for a weekend of sunshine, beer, tapas & quality tunes.

Headlining are The Masonics (Friday) and Graham Day & The Forefathers (Saturday) along with The Jezebels, Galileo 7, The Sine Waves & others ably supporting.

Tickets are 45 euros for the whole weekend and the crowd size is limited to 220 so you'd better click here sharpish to get details of how to obtain a couple. 

If you're after some top quality garage rock 'n' roll in the warmer climes of Spain this spring then the Green Fuzz Festival could be the very thing for you.

Preceded by the Green Fuzz Day in March (with performances from The Missing Souls and The Cavemen amongst others) the event is back for a second year towards the end of April with a top notch international line-up featuring the likes of The Jackets, The Anomalys, The Baron Four and The Teamsters. 

As small events go this is pretty small as there are only 300 tickets but that should obviously make for an enjoyably intimate weekend. All this goes on in the Basque region so you're probably looking at a flight to Bilbao and then travel onwards south.

Further details can be obtained here as time goes on & at some point the events website may display 2016 instead of 2015.
