I think its a shame Fairport never seem to play in or near Bristol. Might have missed something here but they always seem to give it a wide berth. Huh

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!


Agree with you Chris, I used an exclamation mark, but won't remember that next year!

Got my tickets too, upstairs second row

I spoke to the Box Office manager last Saturday - she said that she accepted the complaint, and the staff felt the same way as they require the same sort of passwoed....

I then said that punters need something memorable as they certainly don't log on every day like the box office staff.....

It's going to management.

enough about this winter tour....I want to know if they are coming back to the US this year and if they'll -please, please,please- play somewhere less then 5 hours drive away..... Roll Eyes


There isn't anyhere less than 5 hours away from anywhere else in The American Colonies is there?



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.

Or as someone said about Canada, "too much geography not enough  history".
