I would guess you would have to beg the Levellers themselves.
They have been rumoured on the line-up many times now. Peggy even got as far as listing them as TBC on a mailing one year.
Trouble is, they have their own festival the week after Cropredy. It would diminish their own event if they played another festival too close to their own. For the same reason that Fairport don't play Sidmouth or Cambridge (except in emergencies) the Levellers are unlikely to play Cropredy.
But that is supposition and of course anything is possible.
Cheers
Nick

So who's for getting up a posse for Beautiful Days then? I have to say though, after what I saw last night, if they did a fest right before their own, they'd never have the energy to get through   Sad though Mic |

I guess we're just lucky the two festivals don't happen on the same weekend!

There are several people I know who go to both festivals. Careful juggling of holidays / families is involved, however.

Cropreddy and Beautifull days are both on my calender for next year. Hoping to find another festival as well, but I am not sure I can talk Lorraine into another 3 days or so camping. But I could go on my own, as I am old enough and promise not to get into much trouble.

Cropredy, Beautiful Days, spare weekend, Wallingford for us Must look for something to fill that spare weekend. The cat thinks we have abandoned her in August/September. Would still love to see Bellowhead on at Cropredy  Sandra |

The Levellers would rock the place - too many hippies tho'
*and their festival is excellent, but i would be prepared to go back to Cropredy if they are playing*
OI !!!!!! I'm a hippy!!!! I love The Levellers... or am I not allowed to  Mic |

See y'all there And Trowbridge Pump, National Forest Folk, Big Session, both Off The Tracks, Cropredy of course and probably not Bosworth  |

MODERATOR!
Can this be split into two, so that speculation / news Cropredy 06 bands is the only thing here - I keep expecting news when it's updated.

This topic has been locked. I have started a new topic http://www.talkawhile.co.uk/yabbse/index.php?topic=14146.0 for general Cropredy chit chat. There is also a new topic just for information on Cropredy 2006. Jen |
