"I remember my first gig and being welcomed so warmly by the audience at the Roses Theatre in Tewkesbury: that was my first real introduction to the enthusiastic and generous fan following that Fairport is blessed with." The poor chap must have forgotten Cropredy '92. I haven't.  |

Er...yep. Exactly. So in other words it wasn't Chris's "first introduction to..." I've said elsewhere on here that Cropredy '92 was my favourite Fairport performance post-'84.... |

Peggy does still have a small amount of hair - he has a rather good razor....
