Last minute decision to head across to Manchester tonight.  I'm staying at the Ancoats Travelodge.

Anybody around and fancy a pre- or post- meetup?

Drop me a line at davidmjs at gmail dot com if you fancy it.


We'll be there. not been to this venue before, although I think I may have sat my accountancy exams there in the 70's!! Is there a decent pub nearby and whats the parking like? As its friday evening, probably set out early and avoid the motorway.

A bit too far for us, hope you have a good time, David.

In fact we're not going to be able to see Fairport until August. Whilst I understand that costs are escalating for everyone, including Fairport, that also includes us. £37 per seat for our local gig in Swansea is just not on the cards for us.

I hear that most, if not all, the gigs on this tour are selling out, so I don't feel bad about not going, especially given the cost of MOT-related repairs on our car yesterday and our campervan in the very near future.

So, have fun, everyone, see you on a field.

Dolores Keane at 72. Typical Irish wild child turned national treasure. RIP


I’ve just seen this today, sad news.  She was a great singer from a great family of musicians but didn’t have to go looking for grief and sadness in her life.
RIP Dolores

NOTICE TO ALL RENAISSANCE FANS

Cherry Red Records Ltd is attempting to promote the sale of downloads of two songs on Apple Music and YouTube Music with false and misleading statements that the two songs are recordings made by Renaissance.  The two songs are demo recordings of me singing the songs in the early 80's that were not Renaissance songs and not songs that I wrote.  Renaissance had nothing to do with these two demo songs.

Please do not be misled by Cherry Red Record’s advertisements or the illustrated label that claims the recordings are of Renaissance and incorrectly suggests they are recordings of Renaissance songs.

Please pass this on as far and wide as you can so that potential purchasers are not misled by Cherry Red Record’s attempt to pass these recordings off as Renaissance recordings and the songs as Renaissance songs.

Love and Light,
