Title: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Simon Withers on September 26, 2018, 09:18:55 AM No what about the Friday headliner?
I would love to see Big Big Train headline the Friday night. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Will S on September 26, 2018, 01:50:24 PM Me too - just discovered them recently, and they'd be great!
Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: David W on September 26, 2018, 02:04:33 PM A decent Saturday late afternoon slot maybe but not headliners IMHO
Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Field 7 is Heaven (Trev) on September 26, 2018, 02:09:36 PM No , Big Big Train would be an ideal headliner on Friday.
Crossover appeal, energy, enthusiasm and great musicians. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Bridgwit (Bridget) on September 26, 2018, 06:17:08 PM I'd be happy with them as a headliner! Fabulous band :)

Fabulous band :) Me too ;D ;D (not that I'm biased or anything ::) but they are such a great band ) Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Bridgwit (Bridget) on September 26, 2018, 09:04:03 PM I'd be happy with them as a headliner!

I'm guessing that they would be right at the edge of the budget. Maybe £100K+. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Jules Gray on October 05, 2018, 11:46:33 PM Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott, the last king of pop I didn't know Jacqui had even had a sex change! :o Jules Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: davidmjs on October 06, 2018, 07:13:45 AM Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott, the last king of pop I'm guessing that they would be right at the edge of the budget. Maybe £100K+. Really?! Jesus, the last time I saw Heaton live was in a pub. It wasn't that long ago... Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Malcolm on October 06, 2018, 08:53:14 AM Their gig at Sheffield is sold out but tickets were Stg33, less than RT!
Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: YaBB Master (Colin) on October 06, 2018, 10:50:37 AM Their gig at Sheffield is sold out but tickets were Stg33, less than RT! They sold out the Albert Hall in under an hour. Again reasonable ticket prices. (£35ish) I was thinking they might be in the price range and apparently sell loads of tickets. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Lubiloo (Lorna) on October 06, 2018, 11:12:20 AM They would be brilliant as the Friday headliner.

Maybe £100K+. That's a lot more than James Taylor isn't it?

Maybe £100K+. That's a lot more than James Taylor isn't it? I know how much James Taylor would have wanted about 15 years ago. Less than that, but not a lot.

Maybe £100K+. Fantastic option,a massive back catalogue. Saw them at Cannock Chase in the summer and got tickets for Sheffield in November. Love em. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: PaulT on October 06, 2018, 07:34:13 PM I'm not sure they'd be right for a Cropredy crowd. Erudite for sure, and melodic, but so were Divine Comedy...

Erudite for sure, and melodic, but so were Divine Comedy... More singalong pieces than Divine Comedy ( whom I actually loved, anyway). Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: YaBB Master (Colin) on October 06, 2018, 09:22:39 PM I'm not sure they'd be right for a Cropredy crowd. Erudite for sure, and melodic, but so were Divine Comedy... Their current tour is 'The Last King of Pop' (look on Amazon) All the hits from Housemartins, Beautiful South and their duo stuff. Thirty something straight hits. Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Lubiloo (Lorna) on October 06, 2018, 09:25:54 PM I'm not sure they'd be right for a Cropredy crowd.

Thoroughly enjoyable last time, and he definitely "got" Cropredy.

Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Anji on October 28, 2018, 08:00:35 AM I’d love to see They Might Be Giants on that stage - they played Edinburgh a few weeks ago, and were superb.

Well I would like to see them. They would strengthen the bill in general, but would they sell extra tickets? Title: Re: Friday headliner 2019 Post by: Field 7 is Heaven (Trev) on November 09, 2018, 06:09:19 PM Its a slot made for Big Big Train
