Surely it's the 2009 winter tour, not 2008 Huh.
I could be wrong, fairport could be one step ahead of me.

That, and the last five dates of the tour slip back into February, but we all know what they mean and I'm sure it will be corrected soon Wink

Just seen that, the dates are all over the place!  Looks like we've missed Milton Keynes by nearly 2 years!  I never even noticed!

Never mind Milton Keynes: it looks like the Truro gig happened one thousand nine hundred and ninety nine years ago!

It looks like I'll be seeing the guys at Chesterfield Winding Wheel or Burnley Mechanics, as I last saw them at last year's Cropredy.

I once heard Simon Nicol observe that in the US we think 100 years is a long time while in the UK you think 100 miles is a long way. More than a little truth to that, I think.

Huddersfield for me, as I don't like the free-for-all seating at the Burnley Mechanics, plus the LBT has seats that are more luxurious!  Cheesy

Also looking forward to seeing the support act - Ken Nicol and Phil Cool - that will make for a good evenings entertainment then.  Grin

We've just decided to put theatre-style seats all the way down to the stage this time rather than having the tables and chairs on the flat bit. Can't say if they'll be allocated by row and number though...

If they have the seating right down to the stage at the Mechanics then they tend to allocate the seats on booking, well at least they have for other gigs I've seen there with this layout.  

I still think I'll go to Huddersfield though as it's a cracking venue and I can get there quicker than Burnley, which is a definite advantage for a mid-week gig!

Still dunno where to go.  Huh It'll probably have to be Hunstanton, as it's the only one that's not on a school day. Why Hunstanton? North Norfolk's answer to Great Yarmouth....

Yup - I've got mine!
The side balcony is the place to go - virtually armchairs up there, and a great view of the stage.
Don't like the new password they're forcing on you - a capital letter (fine), and a digit (fine), but ALSO a symbol?.....everyone will instanstly forget their passwords!
