Horslips....anyone?  Smiley


Well, me for one, but sightings of Horslips, anywhere are few and far between.
Although various members turn up together in a fairly low key fashion. All five members and the more usual 4 + Ray Fean rarely take the stage together.

Dreadzone for sure, but a later slot this year as they were lost last time.


Yes! If ever a band deserved a second chance, not playing to a rain drenched audience.
Deadzone need a warm summer's night.
(Well there was one in 2003)


Well, if someone deserves an opportunity to play to some dry people, I nominate Julie Fowlis.


We still refer to that afternoon as the fowlis weather that Cropredy ever had...



Nice one.  Grin

I thought they were great (as they were again last month at Hammersmith).  For me, it was the Waterboys who dsappointed me last time round, so if they really are playing again next year I hope they'll impress me more.

Wendy was correct. The weather didn't do them any favours, though.
Just for you, Andy...
