Stranglers announced for Lunar in late July so they are clearly on the circuit this year.

I'm not a Cropredy person so don't look at these threads much, but I can't help but say - -Camel?? @ Cropredy?  Get Gentle Giant on and I might even go  (For the first time).

Quite enjoyed that, even if a lot of the rest of it was a bit dull, RT excepted of course. Some nice pedal steel from Chris Hilllman, who's been touring with The Travelling Band and Billy Bragg over the last couple of years.

Robert Vincent was great on the Old Grey Whistle test, but having watched it again , how good were the band playing with him.

Was that Beth Nielsen Chapman backing vocals?

Who was the drummer in the fur hat and the excellent rest. Her band I suspect? Anyone know.

It's more likely than Gentle Giant - Camel are still touring - and are active this summer...GG haven't played together since 1980!

That's accurate, but a bit disingenuous at the same time as Three Friends (who play Gentle Giant music and feature Gentle Giant members) have been out on the circuit in recent years, at least until Gary Green had a nasty heart attack (2015 ish?)

He would - as long as he actually turned up, and didn't just dial in a performance, as I believe he has a tendency to do.
