Title: Cropredy 2018 Top Turn Poll RESULTS Post by: YaBB Master (Colin) on September 03, 2018, 01:15:49 PM The poll has closed, the results are in and here are the top 8 (Who got over 50% of the winners vote) :
Another win for the home side, but the vote was much more spread out this year. Title: Re: Cropredy 2018 Top Turn Poll RESULTS Post by: Bridgwit (Bridget) on September 03, 2018, 02:24:40 PM Not quite how I voted but seems fair enough!

Fair play to them. Makes you wonder though if they'd have stormed* the poll if the weather had been better. *Pun not originally intended, but now is.

BUT it was a helluva good final 3rd.

Title: Re: Cropredy 2018 Top Turn Poll RESULTS Post by: Will S on September 04, 2018, 12:20:51 PM I voted for all bar one of the top acts. Not in that order, but that's democracy for you!
Title: Re: Cropredy 2018 Top Turn Poll RESULTS Post by: Field 7 is Heaven (Trev) on September 04, 2018, 01:38:04 PM In truth not the best Fairport set of recent times either. But I think we all voted for the section with Maart which was outstanding.
For me the lows outdid the highs. Crushing disappointment with the Levellers equalled by the unexpected high of the Bar Stewards. However the best two performances I saw were at the Brasenose. Merry Hell were simply outstanding, best act of the weekend by a mile. Also I went to watch Kaprekar's Constant who were very good indeed , but stayed for Zal Cleminson. These were not my sort of thing musically. But what a performance. Well delivered and very exciting. Everything the Levellers weren't. hats off to Peter Richards. For me two of the top four performances were at the Brasenose.
