You lot are lucky - only a question of which gig to pick! If they're not coming to Dublin this time I'll have to fly....or swim!  |

Milton Keynes of course! They're on a Thursday this year? That's new. It's normally Wednesday. Might make it to St Albans as well this year.

Margate for me I think. The Theatre Royal is a lovely venue. Always wanted to play there myself.

Don't think any of the Festival acts got paid, at the time. Ryde should be ok though...seems to be a straightforward theatre gig  (mainly standing evidently, seating is limited...eeek!) |

I suspect that I might be too, as I cross off another venue that I haven't been in...(yet)

Nearest pub to Crosby Civic Hall is the Liver - on the corner of Crosby Road North & South Road. If coming by train, get off at Waterloo station, cross South Road and turn right - unless you fancy a (cheap) pint of Cain's, in which case, turn left & head for the Alexandra - about 100 yds from the station.
The Liver serves decent Tetley beer, and is frequented by Liverpool supporters - Ray Clemence used to drink there from time to time. There's a number of restaurants (Indian, Chinese) & takeaways in South Road. Entrance to the car park for the Civic Hall is round the back - coming from Liverpool, turn right at the lights by the Liver, then first left
I was born in Handfield Road (no 63, but no blue plaque... yet) about 200 yards from the Civic Hall/library buildings, and went to Crosby Road North infants and then junior school just round the corner. My sister appeared in the Crosby Music Festival at the Civic Hall aged about 11-12, playing a piano duet with Cherie Booth (later Blair) - they were taught by the same lady, Miss Parncott. Ah, memories.
I might turn up at Crosby as well as Tewkesbury - might even bring Mother & sister along...

Me too - I live within walking distance. It is a pretty horrible place though - I was in an amateur dramatics group many years ago and we used to do all of our shows there and the sound, even for the likes of us, was difficult. On the plus side, I will hopefully be able to persuade my wife and kids to venture forth and see Fairport as it's so close to home. |

Looks like the Union Chapel tickets are on sale - £22 (plus booking fee), no reserved seat and bring your cushion. On the other hand it is only 10 minutes on the tube.

Aha! Irish Tour in March. I won't have to swim after all. That's at least one happy bunny here in Dublin! |

I've finally booked my tix for the Stables! Pretty poor seats along the side, but better than not going! Phew, another few days and I night have missed out completely!

That won't be a problem with the Worthing gig. I'm amazed they keep coming back!  |
