The defensible bit
A five-star score tells you almost nothing about whether a band can hold a festival crowd. A vouch names the band making the recommendation and, where possible, the gig they shared.
"We shared the bill, saw the full set and would happily work with them again."
Illustrative format. No vouch is published without a named source.
