He's not alone in that view.
Absolutely - there was barely an act that I would leave Wokingham for in the main festival (called YawnFest here) but gthe fringe looked top rate. I was disappointed to miss the fringe but realistically, there was no point in going to Leamington for Friday night, an hour on Saturday and another hour on Sunday.
I see that plans are afoot for Progeny 4. Perhaps it should all be held in the public bar. OPr even in the pubic bar - perhaps this would draw a bigger audience.
