A couple of points to add.
Ive sort of changed my mind about civvie tents, when you think how much we spend on our MV's and equipment and fuel, £400 for a 9x9 12x12 which will last forever is good value and makes the shows look better.
My mate bought a civvie 4 man tent for £100, he's used it about 6 times and it's falling apart!
What makes a great show?
THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!
