Downloadable from here - http://www.fairportconvention.com/downloads/Newsletter%205_8.pdf

LOADS of stuff in it, including a Sandy feature a Cropppers, and a new FC single download!  :o I kid you not. During the last week in June, you will be able to download WKWTTG with Chris and Kellie While from iTunes and HMV Digital. Pre-orders can be taken from www.dittomusic.net Also, they will be reducing the carbon footprint of the festival and increasing recycling there! Yay! Lots to look foward to.

Thanks for the heads up.A download single,hey? How exciting! We must all make sure we get this in the last week in June and get the boys into the download singles chart! I'm not sure how many downloads it takes to get into the chart but reckon its only a number of 1000's to get a top place so between us I'm sure we can do it! All for a very reasonable 79p or whatever! Nice one!

So, what's Harris introducing, then?  Is that part of the Fairport set or something different?

From thecway it's written, my guess is that it'll be a stand-alone part of the weekend's proceedings, rather than taking a lump out of the 3.5 hour set.
If it's in the middle of the FC set, then Bob won't have much to say, unless there's a narrative, a la Mr Hutchings and the FC early years set previously.
