THE streets of Darlington rocked on Sunday as the Orange Rhythm and Brews 2000 Festival drew to a close.
Bands from all over the region took to the stage at the town's market square for the final day of the festival.
A series of free concerts was staged with performances from, among others, blues-rock outfit The Hamsters and the Otis Grand Blues Band.
Running alongside the outdoor concerts a number of bands also played in local pubs.

Free workshops were held at the Dolphin Centre during the day for people who wanted to learn to play guitar, saxophone, harmonica or keyboards.
The Rhythm and Brews Festival was supported by The Northern Echo and Century Radio, and featured a mix of films, concerts and real ales
