I'm off to Underneath The Stars Festival and I've not got a clue who's in the line-up yet.


Limited line-up now released - Steve Earle (thank you), LAU, Ukulele Orchestra of GB among others.  


Panic...mis read that post, thought it was the final line up for Cropredy!

But just think how boring your life will be when you no longer have this announcement to look forward to!

Not been to Cropredy for a few years but announcement of Ms R and Oysterband is making me have positive thoughts...and I can definitely go along with Steve Earle and the Dukes (as mentioned elsewhere) .
We saw Little Feat at Cropredy, and if not a return for them, how about Paul Barrere and Fred Tackett doing their acoustic duo? While on a Transatlantic theme,  Poco are treading the boards again. It is unlikely that you could persuade Pure Prairie League or the Lonesome River Band to leave the USA but...

Think everybody has given up on speculating and the excitement has gone about who will be playing Cropredy this year. Maybe we’ll get an announcement on the final line-up by the end of March? It was all done and dusted on 31 January last year!

I do hope this is cock up or accident.

If its a marketing ploy its one from the Gerald Ratner school of business.

At least we should have lots more room on the field this year.

Do we think they have been knocked back by their first choice Thursday headliner and are now scrabbling around for a big enough name to fill the slot at relatively short notice?

Possibly, but they must have SOME band names they can release?

Well they'd be better than nothing at this stage.  Can they sing?

For no apparent reason I just got an email from the Spooky Men. Now there's a top idea.

Beautiful Days tickets have been on sale for a month now and they haven’t announced a single act.
