FIELD 8 (cream of the crop)

Gerry has just posted this on facebook...

Hi all

The Cream of the Crop ( aka field 8 )(aka the field of dreams )is awaking from its slumber. Anyone with tickets, they will be valid this year, you will be contacted soon with the what nots. Anyone who wants hook ups. It will be a first come first served thingy. This will also be on said email.

Anyone looking for a place to stay… the good news is we were massively cautious with our sales, what with covid and what not… there will be more tickets made available. We will answer all email requests and then post on here. Please act fast when we do, we tend to be in the fortuitous position of selling out quite quickly.

We hope you are all well and ready to join us come summer. Oh yeah… and we’re also a campsite all year round 😉

Much love and happiness
Gerry and Keon and all the other peops from the funny farm!
Danque 😘

Very interested in this! A weekend in the camper at Cropredy would be wonderful Smiley

Does anyone know if this is happening and if so, are there any spaces available?

If anyone knows anyone who might like a Saturday only ticket, please let me know. I bought one 2 years ago, but I'm now thinking of doing the whole 3 days.

Sorry for multiple postings, but circumstances now mean I'll be reverting to Plan A - i.e. attending Saturday only!  Grin

Do you mean Cropredy, or Field 8?

In either case the answer is yes & best to check direct via the website.

The Red Lion have announced their fringe line up, looks ok but not the same without Spank The Monkey at some time over the weekend.

It's official Talking Elephant are coming back to Cropredy 2022. In the same place as usual, but this time we are also bringing along Kaprekar's Constant to play the Fringe and The Slambovians for the field with both their new albums on the wonderful  TE.

Looking forward to a fantastic Croppers 2022 and hope to see you all there.

Really looking forward to Kaprekar's Constant - I hadn't discovered them when they played the last time, but have bought all their albums since and really enjoy them.

A great band, or should I say Collective. Have you heard the new one The Murder Wall?

I thought H was in Steps... tbh, I'd prefer him to Hogarth.  I was unimpressed by him at Cropredy.

Steve Hogarth has apologised (within about 48 hours of the event) for being over-refreshed during Marillion's 2017 appearance :

"First of all, I apologise for the language. I did wake up in the middle of the night on Saturday in a cold sweat over some of the things I’d said from the stage. You’re right - I could have done without resorting to the f word quite so much.

I live fairly local to the village of Cropredy and quite a few of my friends are farmers, so those comments were meant in fun and in their direction. I received texts later from one or two of them and they took my jibes in the spirit I had meant them"

It wasn't the language. It was the whole set. Safe to say I have never been a fan of Marillion, but I wanted to give them a fair hearing. Just a case of "meh" to me.

Being drunk is a great excuse, I used it once or twice myself when I did stupid things drunk, but his mean attitude, his nastiness and his continual insults directed toward Fairport and indeed Cropredy were beyond apology. IMHO.
