As per Dave Pegg's idea in his Talkawhile Guest role, can we come up with a decent title for the next album?
My initial suggestion: "Friendly Heroes"... but I'm sure you can do better!

suggestion for the new album title, RubiConvention
40 years = Ruby anniversary
Rubicon definition: take a decisive step
Synonyms: bite the bullet, choose one's fate, jump in with both feet, leap into the breach, leave a crossroads, make one's move, pass the Rubicon, prendre la balle au bond, take for better or worse, take the bull by the horns, take the plunge

40 Cricks ? 40 Winks ? Keep the engine running postiljohn Seriously though, I think 'Life Begins' is an excellent suggestion.

Torn between "Life Begins" and "RubiConvention". Both excellent suggestions.
On balance, I think that I'd go for the latter as Martin's reasoning is flawless!

I'm not sure that it's a good idea to keep focussing on longevity. 'XXXV' 'Over the (next) hill' As for positive ideas

I think Simon once said that Fairport's albums were the musical equivilent of postcards home, letting people know what the band were about at any particular time. My nomination therefore is:
Postcards Home.
