I'm really jealous of you lot. My parents don't seem to realise that this concert is important so every time I mention it, they say "You'll see Fairport at Cropredy and at Cambridge next year" They just don't get it!!! I think if I tell my dad that there is a chance that Robert Plant might be there (please tell me that there is a chance) then they might let me go.

I was wondering earlier why my tickets for this gig haven't arrived. I phoned Symphony Hall and was told it's because they haven't been printed yet!  No doubt they mentioned this at the time I booked, but of course I had forgotten. So if any of you other old codgers out there are having a similar senior moment, just be aware! Apparently, the tickets might not arrive until August  |

Radio 2 Folk news website has a list of guest at this gig which I do not think has been mentioned before DAVE PEGG BOX SET AND BIRTHDAY CONCERT [11/04/07]
2007 is a gala year for Fairport Convention bassist Dave Pegg. On July 30th, Free Reed will release A Box Of Peggs, a four-CD box set representing his 44-year musical career. For the past 12 months Pegg has been working closely with compiler Nigel Schofield on a limited edition of 2000 copies which will contain over 70 tracks, many rare and previously unreleased, plus a 100-page illustrated book. The first 500 pre-orders received by May 31st will earn their purchasers a bonus CD of additional tracks and a namecheck in the book by way of thanks. Then on November 2nd Pegg celebrates his 60th birthday, which will be marked with a concert on the following day at the recently-renovated Birmingham Town Hall. Dave has invited a host of his musical chums including fellow Fairporters, Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson, Steve Ashley, Steve Tilston, Ian Campbell, the Dylan Project, Dave Swarbrick, Beryl Marriott and more to join him onstage in what promises to be a musical feast. Tickets are now on sale from the box office on 0121 780 3333. Details of how to order A Box Of Peggs from Fairport Convention's website.
