Title: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Mike Burrow on April 04, 2011, 04:55:29 PM Tickets are on sale for the warm up gigs. It's back to the Mill at Banbury this year.
Surprisingly there seems to be no mention of this on the FC website but perhaps they are concentrating on Cropredy sales. Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Chris on April 04, 2011, 04:58:29 PM They may not have been told that they're on sale?.....
Price £22....and a £1.50 transaction fee unless paid by cash at the box office. You can choose your seat online at their website now! Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: ian fry on April 05, 2011, 02:55:11 PM I've snared B7 Monday, B10 Tuesday - hurrah!

Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Viv G on April 09, 2011, 10:24:10 AM We've never been to The Mill for warm ups, only WH.It will be interesting to compare the two.
Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Glen S on August 08, 2011, 09:38:59 PM Not sure if anyone is interested, but I have just checked on the Banbury Mill website (5 mins ago) and it appears there are now 2 tickets available for the previously sold out Tuesday evening warm up. Apologies for opening an old topic... :)
Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Jim on August 08, 2011, 11:04:33 PM nobody go tonight?
anything to report? Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Tim Fletcher on August 08, 2011, 11:19:39 PM nobody go tonight? anything to report? And please make use of the spoiler option if you did and there were things that might be a nice surprise. Thank you kindly. Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Chris on August 09, 2011, 09:32:09 AM Nothing of any surprise.
Didn't take a setlist, the first half was half a dozen off the acoustic set and a full BL run-through. The second set was virtually all Festival Bell. It didn't inspire me to buy it unfortunately. Matty (excellent) and the usual encore to finish Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: hendo (Dave) on August 09, 2011, 09:38:43 AM Nothing of any surprise.

Matty (excellent) and the usual encore to finish Chris that sounds surprisingly like the winter tour set. I was expecting something different for Cropredy, eg no JBL Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Jim on August 09, 2011, 09:53:06 AM Nothing of any surprise.

I enjoyed JBL very much on the Winter tour, lots of memories and Chris L did a stunning job. Just thought they might have done something different at Cropredy. Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Chris on August 09, 2011, 10:05:25 AM No, JBL was always a Cropredy project I think
Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: PaulT on August 09, 2011, 10:11:30 AM So, if last night was a few "acoustic" numbers, JBL and the new album, perhaps it would be a reasonable assumption that tonight may well feature the rest of the FC set - including some guests/friends?
Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: Andy on August 09, 2011, 11:07:21 AM Take pity on those who couldn't make the Wintour, (not least because they came nowhere near us) and would LIKE to hear JBL.
I thengyaw. Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: KascadeDan on August 09, 2011, 11:45:28 AM I for one thoroughly enjoyed both the Wintour and Acoustic sets this year, so I'm sure I'll be pleased with whatever Fairport put on the table on saturday night.

Simon confirmed that the "Matty" back projection would be back this year but couldn't say what form it will take. :) Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: PLW (Peter) on August 10, 2011, 11:32:27 AM marathon tonight one hour first part and an hour and 3/4 for the second part im saying nowt but it'll be awreet on saturday neet Sounds a bit Geordie to me.

Mark Knopffler? Sting? Unthanks? Kathryn Tickell? Seriously though, do guests appear at these warm-up gigs - and are you sworn to secrecy (like at the end of The Mousetrap)? Title: Re: Pre-Cropredy warm ups Post by: tony the roundhead on August 10, 2011, 12:08:02 PM Last night's guests were PJ and Phil from the Dylan Project adding some very tasty Strat, slide, piano and accordian.
