Hooray - can now start planning for life after Humbug. It will be St Albans for us so I hope the rehearsals have gone well  I see they have allowed 2 days to get back from Inverness - probably wise at that time of year. |

I'm quite pleased with the Welsh oops! - venue in the south west of the United Kingdom that happens to not be in England. |

No ....I did post on the board about it honest! But it was before the start of the autumn tour even! |

And no trip to the Island of Ireland yet again  They played belfast last in 1995/6 I think .. the year after I was married should ask missus to confirm Relatively large venue Place was bunged with people outside wanting to get in well after doors closed. I think I remember Peggy saying they were supposed to be on a local chat show but had been bumped for Kylie and I think that left a bad taste in the mouth I go over the other way for cropredy evry year so I think this teaches me all about inrequited love B |

I was wondering what else might be planned as it's an extra day away without a gig to pay for it....I guess the lads night fly back the next day? Otherwise just two other days off, both close to home. Is one of those the date for the Folk Awads? |

Only just seen the full list today, pleased with the Pontardawe, Swansea gig - just 15 miles from us.
An earlier post mentions a gap after Inverness, there don't seem to be any gaps now - it looks to me like 30 consecutive nights all over the uk................I think they are forgetting that some of them are knockin' on a bit!!

Hey Miguel! You could go by train We've done that train journey last May; Barton through Grimsby to Cleethorpes. It was blowing a gale and raining horizontally. We stayed less than an hour in Cleethorpes before getting straight back on the train to come home again. |

Glad to see they are playing Brum town hall rather than Symphony Hall again. I never felt SH was a suitable venue, too big and antiseptic for an imtimate band life Fairport.

Worthing again then. Handy for me but I'm surprised they keep coming back. It seems to have been diminishing returns over the last few years and the crowd is always hard work and unresponsive. It doesn't help that they close the bar during the performance.
And the chaps' favourite pub is no longer there. Or rather it has been refurbished into a lager swilling hellhole.

OH NO!!!! They're playing the Bein Inn again. And I've got a mission to complete up there... And that's the weekend I'll be coming back from my annual trip to Scotland anyway... Drop me off in Perth please my dear...
And I "have" to go to St Albans with the gang. AND I had decided to get my parents tickets for Croydon for humbug, so I'd be going to that one too...
This tour couldn't have worked out better for me dates-wise if I'd organised it myself!!
Will Justin understand?? Does he need to?
Looks like I'll probably give the Stables a miss though...

Oddly, I have all those pencilled in myself - might extend the SCottish tour to include all dates though....

They're not showing on Bein Inn or St Albans websites yet... Tickets seem to be available at Croydon, but I haven't actually gone through the process as far as actually booking yet...

Croydon is definitely on sale through their website - I booked a while ago & have had my ticket for a week at least.

You're not the person who's booked Box A (the "Royal Box") are you, Chris?? I had a further browse around on the Fairfield Halls website and it seems that quite a few tickets have already gone...
It turns out Croydon is a Thursday, so I'll have to negotiate with my band as well as Justin for a night off rehearsal. They might not be quite so understanding... Hey ho.

They can have gone on sale only very recently - I checked some time last week.
Enquired on the off-chance last night on the way into the Beth NC gig, and discovered they were on sale. Picked my seat & offered my card. Somewhat alarmingly, they proceeded to take payment & give me my ticket with requesting either PIN number or signature!
I'm thinking about querying the charge when it appears on my account...I doubt they've got a leg to tand on, but of course, they'll cancel the ticket....so maybe not. But still rather alarming.
Also, the front side-circle seats don't come up on the web for purchase, so if you want one of those, give 'em a ring!
