Hi Andy, nice to be here, some really interesting stuff on this forum, glad you like the cd. We have been up your way a few times this year, well more Derbyshire and Lincs. We are always up for gigs, especially to new audiences and we are actually looking for some indoor club gigs over the winter months since the festival season is coming to an end so let me know if you have anyting coming up....

In my case about 53 (counting doubles and box sets as separate) not sure how much less than that qualifies as sane though |

1. Who are you and where are you from?
I'm Robert Lehrian from Pittsburgh, PA.
2. What made you join Talkawhile?
A fine place for camaraderie and information!
3. What do you know of Fairport Convention and/or Cropredy if anything?
I was first introduced to FC in the mid-'90s by the good blokes at Paul's CD shop in Bloomfield (a Pittsburgh neighborhood). Long a fan of blues and Dylan, The Band, etc.. I wandered into the store one morning to hear Sir Patrick Spens - and have been hooked ever since!! Still haven't made in to Cropredy but it's on the bucket list.
4. What kind of music do you like?
Blues, jazz, rock...
5. What was the last gig/festival/recital/concert that you attended? What was it like?
It was a Tom Petty gig with a bunch of friends. Fun, spur of the moment summer concert.
6. What was the last CD that you bought? Would you recommend it?
Festival Bell, actually.
7. Complete the following sentence:
“Tonight, Sir Robert, I am going to be my all time favourite singer ……. (name of singer) and I will
sing: ' ................................' (name of song)
Too many to choose from, Sir Robert.... and I'm afraid it's best that I do not sing. Not now, not ever...
