Event organizer Jules Peters explained, "From the moment last year when Mike expressed a desire to pull off a rock gig at the castle, we have worked tirelessly to make this weekend a success. Never before has a rock concert been staged at Rhuddlan Castle and, with the full support of Cadw and the North Wales community, the event has been a huge success, raising a minimum of £20,000 with donations and sponsorship money still pouring in. Heartfelt thanks to the local community who supported our dream."

Mike was joined on stage by The Levellers, who made a massive overnight journey from Inverness, Scotland, to be at Rhuddlan Castle Rocks. Simon Fowler from Ocean Colour Scene made a surprise special guest appearance, and Mike and The Alarm joined Simon on stage to perform their massive hit, "The Day We Caught the Train." The Alarm treated the audience to a medley of Top 20 Hits, including "Rain in the Summertime," "68 Guns" and "Spirit of '76." Mike was also joined on stage by very special guests, actors Phil Daniels and Keith Allen, for a stirring performance of "Love Hope Strength," the signature tune of Mike's foundation. All performing artists signed the Epiphone Masterbilt Acoustic guitar before it was auctioned off to raise additional funds for the charity. - more including photos!
