I'm selling an original painting from '69 of the Incredible String Band by an artist called Bill Gall. It was on Antiques Roadshow a decade ago... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnxYFdhZCiE (when it was valued at £2k) It's listed on eBay here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/257089541122 but I'm open to a private sale too. Genuinely surprised you can bring yourself to part with it. Jules I'm effectively the dealer here, but if I end up keeping it for a while it won't be the end of the world. Mike does follow you around the room a bit, mind... ![]() Trying it in an auction in a couple of weeks. If you happen to know any Stringheads with deep pockets do please pass it on.... ![]() https://bid.omegaauctions.co.uk/auction/lot/lot-469---incredible-string-band---original-1969-bill-gall-painting-as-seen-on-antiques-roadshow/?lot=104265&so=0&st=string%20band&sto=0&au=254&ef=&et=&ic=False&sd=0&pp=48&pn=1&g=1 |

Yes tips for us newbies please, Everything is easy! No need to rush to get a camping spot or a good place in the arena. Bar is great , plenty of toilets , first aid staff are the best, as I have found out. Decent late shop nearby , but dont go back the way you drive in, go through the woods, its about a quarter of the distance. Buy a programme ,they're excellent and you will need the code inside for the early bird offer. It also contains a card with all the timings and details of next years line up on the other side. The Go Outdoors chairs are no longer 2 for £15. They are now £10 each , buy the second half price. PEDANT ALERT! Thank you for this. |

Van the Man - Avalon Sunset. It's been a while, but there's a lot there I love. And the end of Coney Island still has the power to make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up: "Wouldn't it be great if it was like this all the time?"

Glad to know I won't be the only newbie there!
Any tips for us first-timers? Things that are different from Cropredy which we should be aware of? |
