Similar to us . Our previous van went before Christmas and we only replaced it last week , couldnt commit to tickets before we had a van. We just couldnt find one that matched all of our criteria for ages, so compromised on price and storage space. Our logic was that they are holding their value very well , and we bought an awning!

Congratulations, how lovely!

Bought ourselves a camper van this morning so Cropredy tickets have followed quickly after. First time since 2018 so very excited.

Not sure how long ago this was but generally he seems a lot less 'down in his cups' than he was a decade or so ago....

I saw him on the 17th April at the West End Center Aldershot.  The name seemed familiar when i saw it in the Westie program but I didn't really know any thing about him or the band he had been in. There was some chat and some tuning, though neither seemed to be longer than other people i have seen at the same venue.  I had no expectations before hand, and enjoyed the evening.  Some of the songs did seem the same, mainly in the way the songs were sung/phrased. If he does come back to the Westie in the future i would most likely buy another ticket.

Let me know how McNabb goes. Last time a friend saw him he spent half the time tuning his twelve-string and the other half getting the audience to sing the choruses.

Grrrrr.  Thankfully, I've just discovered that Pat Morgan of Datblygu pulled out yesterday of her support at tomorrow's Gwenno gig at Bedford Esquire (not sure about the rest of the tour).  As a result I don't have to drive for 7 hours and can get the money back on my hotel.

But if anybody fancies a dirt cheap ticket for Gwenno (she's playing two sets instead) drop me a line.

I've been hearing really good things about HC100 on this tour (and the new album)... Ian will be grand as always I'm sure...and I'm intrigued as to what Sparko sounds like after all this time.

Ian McNabb tonight, Haircut 100 tomorrow and Sparko from Dr. Feelgood on Sunday.  Old school weekend.

I wish I could go but the Manchester date is also my wife's birthday. She is not a fan unfortunately.

Next for me is Albert Lee tomorrow in Manchester.
