Cancel that...........
The acoustic version of the "Greatest Folk-Rock Band in the World" features the full line-up but with Gerry Conway on percussion rather than the full kit. Expect old and new favourites in this exclusive London performance. No support: first set at 8.30pm.

I don't and won't have access to it, unfortunately; but please tell me they're playing Kendal! (Only if they are, of course ...!) |

Any gigs not too far from Bedfordshire? Went to Dartford last year and that was a bit of a trek, somewhere like Chesham or Hertford would be more convenient. |

Bognor Regis - Alexandra Theatre - Sunday 16th May Hot off the press! My son Jamie works at the theatre and confirmed the booking with Nigel yesterday! 300+ theatre seats make it a comfortable & cosy venue. Historic correction - King George V on his deathbed did not say to his doctor, who suggested he will soon be well enough to return for some more sea air, "Bugger Bognor" but replied "Book at Bognor" as he enjoyed himself oh so much! As will us Fairporters! Book early for Bognor! Alexandra Theatre 01243 861010 http://www.alexandratheatre.co.uk/ |

I've just tried to buy tickets for St Helens on 11th May - ticket office said they're not on sale yet as they don't know how much to charge - they've been trying to find out from Fairport's management for a couple of weeks, but have had no reply!
