RT's 'Dream Attic' is sounding like a great loud Rock 'n' Roll gig to me !

'Demons In Her Dancing Shoes' sounds like the first Fairport song he's written in years.

I bristled a bit when I read that, but do you know what...I think you might have made a very valid point.  I don't think its quite what you meant, but I can sort of see the chaps doing that one.  Smiley

if we're talking of moving in that kind of direction then slash performing his solo album would be mouth watering. what with some guns and vr songs thrown in there you're looking at one hell of a set.

Well the way they've been going recently, might as well have a line up consisting of **** like "Bill Hurd's Rubettes", "Fred Blenkinsop's Bay City Rollers", "Jism Small's Barclay James Harvest", "Albert Harbottle's Sweet" and "Jethro Till and the Cash registers." And let's put "I was a road for WISHBONE ASH on there as well." Maybe a turn from Showaddywaddy, Buck's Fizz featuring the bloke from Dollar and Lieutenant Pigeon without the old woman on piano. Can I mention the cross between **** MOD acts and Dogs from Easterenders? Paul Wellard.

Well, if you're really after an actual Eastenders/rock n roll crossover, how about the latest incarnation of The Heavy Metal Kids featuring John "Nick Cotton" Altman on lead vocals in place of the late Gary Holton...

What about The Jim Jones Review, very loud, very rock and roll, sound like a present day MC5 a bit, to me. Not sure if they have been mentioned or not.

Yeah, I know, not great is it...this wasn't a serious suggestion, I was just amused by the sight of Nick Cotton fronting a rock band !

i just might be, ha ha. as much as i like slash i really don't think he would suit the mood of cropredy. i was just playing around  Smiley

i was thinking of going to download this year to see slash but the thought of all those stages intimidates me, lol. and it seems pointless. two acts that you want to see are bound to clash at some point.

copredy has got it right with the one stage.

Its funny how its almost become a USP now...when it used to be what always happened.  

Funnily enough i was thinking just the other day about that old Reading thing they used to do - 2 main stages next to each other...1 being used and the other being set up...and a VIP section just in front between the two (aka a 'target' for the large bottles of, er, um 'excess water' flying from the 'cheap seats'...)

I saw Showaddywaddy a few years ago and they were actually quite good. I was drunk at the time though  Roll Eyes

There, I've admitted it. They say admittance is the first step....  Undecided

Repost, because I put it in the wrong thread........

Ian McNabb would be great.

I still think The Waterboys would be just what the doctor ordered.

Oh and Neil Innes doing a Rutles show.
