I think the difference between the two is Firefest goes for really special exclusives,while HRH tends to bag all the bands currently on tour in the UK in the November silly season.I hope the HRH AOR is a success because 2 such festivals 6 months apart run by trustworthy teams is great for the scene.I don't think Firefest will suffer as they have worked so hard to establish trust and the brand.I think last year's HRH had more "Firefest"type bands than ever and both events were popular only a month apart.
