Title: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Ollie on April 30, 2007, 05:39:36 PM No, don't worry, their not changing!! I was just wondering, if any of them did decide to leave, who would you want to replace them? For a start, if (God forbid) Simon left, it would be quite nice to see PJ Wright take his place.
Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Nic O on April 30, 2007, 06:13:09 PM I would love to see Al Stewart play with FC
I gather he is still good friends with Iain Mathews Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Jim G on April 30, 2007, 08:25:58 PM I think you should join Ollie :)- start the next generation of Fairport

Post by: tullist/raymond on April 30, 2007, 08:43:33 PM I presume this would bar the inclusion of anyone who has alreadybeen in the group, as those would certainly be my first choices, and with battle helmet completely secured on my head, I nominate June Tabor
Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Keith on April 30, 2007, 10:00:42 PM Well, Peggy is probably the least tied to the band now, despite his long history. Wonder if TTL Helen would be interested :)

Post by: martin driver on May 01, 2007, 08:59:52 AM SN = Bob Fox
DP = Alan Thompson RS = Anna Phoebe CL = Phil Beer GC = Cormac Byrne + guitar PJ Wright Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Keith on May 01, 2007, 09:08:26 AM Nice. But isn't Bob the same age as Simon? I think for longevity's sake we need to consider youth, or those who plan to go on for many years, regardless of age. I can't see many of the current line-up quitting for at least 5 years.
Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Cocker Freeman on May 01, 2007, 10:25:45 AM SN = Sugar Ray Leonard
DP = Floyd Merryweather RS = Oscar de la Hoya CL = Amir Kahn GC = Marvyn Hagler + guitar Thomas "The Hitman" Hearns Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Jules Gray on May 01, 2007, 10:26:30 AM RT for Simon
DM for Gerry Swarb for Ric and Chris Ashley for Peggy And Chris While or Linda Thompson as vocalist And then persuade Simon to rejoin ;) Jules Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Jim G on May 01, 2007, 10:51:37 AM How about a punk line up?
Slimy Lickholes, Shave Leg, Jolly Longway, Crisp Frisbee and Slick Marauders (fiddle) Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want?

Err, and that's about it. Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Nick Reg on May 01, 2007, 06:12:13 PM Well, Peggy is probably the least tied to the band now, despite his long history. Wonder if TTL Helen would be interested :) You bet! She said she was depressed after the tour slot ended! Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want?

I've always said Fairport would benefit from the Uilleann pipes, he'd bring his own chair and everything Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: Ollie on May 02, 2007, 05:49:26 PM Slightly off topic, but if Ric ever left, do you think that they would carry on doing his instrumentals?
Title: Re: Current Line Up Changes - Who would you want? Post by: GubGub (Al) on May 02, 2007, 09:20:42 PM Slightly off topic, but if Ric ever left, do you think that they would carry on doing his instrumentals? Seems unlikely. Maart's material has not been much in evidence since his departure and even Swarb's instrumentals get limited outings with the obvious exception of the medley that concludes Matty Groves. |
