Show : Fairport Convention

Show Dates : Tuesday 28 February 2006

Ticket Prices : £14, £15, £16

Venue : Pavilion Theatre, 7.30pm



With Special Guest P.J. Wright

The legendary inventors of British folk-rock music are back featuring five of the genre's finest musicians - Simon Nicol (guitar, vocal), Dave Pegg (bass, backing vocal), Chris Leslie (fiddle, mandolin, vocal), Ric Sanders (violin), and Gerry Conway (drums). Having won huge critical acclaim over the years with groundbreaking albums such a Liege and Lift, Fairport's greatest strength has always been live performance. Come and listen to songs from their new album 'Over The Next Hill', and contrast these with classics such as 'Matty Groves' and 'Meet On The Ledge'. See www.fairportconvention.com for more information.

Sounds like an unusual and exciting setlist then   Sad


Though Liege and Lift sounds good, would that have been in collaboration with Otis Redding then  Grin

St Albans has a real ale bar, all seating and a car park you can get out of in less than an hour. It depends how tribal your bit of Tribal Essex is, I suppose. My bit of NW Essex to St A's is a doddle.
