So last year's FAC tour wasn't the last ever, then... I seem to remember that was being said at the time.

Not that I'm complaining - the gig at Stroud was one of the best I've seen the band play.  Smiley

It does seem a slightly redundant distinction now as the full time band are largely acoustic these days so the FAC gigs are less novel than they were when, for instance, Maart was in the band.

Doesn't it give Simon and Peggy a chance to sit down though?

Smashing, thanks for that Chris! I can't get to the Kendal gig on the Wintour, so it's good to know I can catch the chaps in May.

Are there any more in the Yorks area, please ?

York, Bradford, Leeds or even Manchester centre.

Holmfirth is a great venue, but I don't drive and the cost of b&b or taxi back to Leeds makes it financially impossible.

Indeed. That's one of the several reasons I can't get there ...!  Wink
