Justin Hawkins and new band Hot Leg brought Moonfest to a successful close on Sunday night.

The former Darkness frontman had promised a spectacular entrance on to the stage and he didn't disappoint when he roared on riding a mini quad bike.

The 34-year-old, who is a friend of Moonfest organiser John Green, and his band belted out a succession of guitar-heavy numbers, accompanied by his trademark falsetto vocals and on-stage cavorting.

And what they may have lacked in subtlety they more than made up for with sheer enthusiasm.

A new addition to Hawkins' ensemble was a natty moustache. Sunday's festival, at Storridge Farm, near Westbury, attracted hundreds of music fan and passed off without incident.
