Following his rather dismissive approach to Sandy's songs at the anniversary gig last year I am not so certain it will be delicious |

To be honest, I hope there are not too many guest vocalists other than a female stand in for Sandy, preferably Chris While. I would rather have an evening of pure undiluted '69 Fairport, or perhaps 69 - 70 Fairport as I see Peggy is involved.

I have to agree there. But maybe Martin is not appearing with Fairport, but solo, or with Swarb, or...

I'd pay good cash money to hear Iain Matthews tackle some of Sandy's parts.
That fellow can sing.

No disrespect to the honourable duo, but isn't this supposed to be a celebration of Witchseason and Fairport 69 in particular? It is a rare enough thing that this group of people will play a full show together. It would for me be a real shame to dilute that with excursions into guest performers and solo projects. |

Hi Dave, Definitely a Tshirt for me, but then that is dressed up in my book. I've reserved a room at the Ibis in Wembley @ £36 a night http://www.ibishotel.com/gb/hotel-3141-ibis-london-wembley/index.shtml |
