What's the Cropredy experience from the artists point of view - and are you coming this year? - in which case, see you at the bar!

It's wonderful to be up ther y'know - playing songs I first wrote and performed for the dog at my kitchen table and seeing 15,000 people enjoying it.
One of the great days for out band was when we launched the 'Mahone Brew' album at Cropredy and the queue took us nearly two hours to satisfy.

It's such a cool place to be and everyone was really nice to us - mind you I've never been there in the rain. Not many places to take shelter are there?

Most artists just sign the CD insert.  ;) ;D

Fnaar fnaar...'satisfy the queue'...mind you...as I often used to say of the mahones....not often you get 6 male models in the same band.
To be honest...that's one of the reasons we're on a break....we got so tired of being admired just for our looks and not taken seriously as musicians...what are you laughing it? we were folk beefcake and no mistake!
