Good ol' Brum again.Although this time if Chris L is using the same setlist all through the tour, I won't be able to nab it 'cos Union Chapel is the last date on this tour.

Union Chapel as usual for us a leisurely 10 minutes or so by train & tube. Interested that the tour is ending there rather than Brum. Wonder if we will be in for any special guests/events?

I was hoping for a date at the New Marlowe in Canterbury! Never mind maybe the next year. Probably Union Chapel for us. Thirty minutes from home on the High-speed train and it takes you the right side of London. Last train back well after midnight so time for a beverage after  Just a stagger up the hill from the station after. Also looking into the possibility of Tunbridge Well, Croydon, Milton Keynes and Margate. Not all of them, depends on shifts! I was really hoping for the New Marlowe as well, found Margate just that bit too far. Considering Union Chapel. |

blummin' London always gets the special appearences mumble moan winge mutter mutter ......... Do I detect more unwarranted grumbling from the provinces?  It's not all streets paved with gold down here you know, for a few years we didn't even get a visit and had to head out to Snorbans. Mind you I suppose that odd events like the bash at the Barbican two years ago are some sort of compensation. |

Well you know...David Gilmour announces he will appear at ONE of Roger Waters' Wall shows - London O2, no surprise....Bernie Marsden from the classic Whitesnake line up appears with his old boss at one show ...Hammersmith..... I went down for the Mott shows though, and although the streets ain't paved with gold,I did find a fiver on Camden High Street. |

Also looking into the possibility of Tunbridge Well, Croydon, Milton Keynes and Margate. Not all of them, depends on shifts! Depending on where you are in Kent HighSpeed 1 is the way to go! Saves trekking across London and coming down on North Kent or Main Line. Knocks at least an hour off the journey and you don't have to run the risk of getting the last train down (aka the vomit express  ). I was really hoping for the New Marlowe as well, found Margate just that bit too far. Considering Union Chapel. |

No gig in Huddersfield next year, so I guess it's the Lowry for us. The only problem is it's the day after a Big Country gig, so Fairport will need to turn those amps up to 11.  |

Well I could do the leisurely 20 minute journey on the Overground to Union Chapel again. But no - I'm treking up to Manchester to go with my brother who has spent the last year or two buying up Fairport CDs following my recommendation. So it only seems right to go with him....

They are coming back to the wonderfully refurbished City Varieties in Leeds, after it's 2 year closure. And it won't be just after Big Country, either. |

And a very good one, too. Saw him live earlier this year, mostly solo but with Mrs Goss providing superb harmony on a few numbers -  great performer who can really connect with the audience. His songs have been covered by many artists including Mary Black - check out her superb rendition of "Just Around The Corner," |

Tickets on sale for Leeds City Varieties. And, yes, I thought the tickets were expensive, too. Just the one gig on this tour, I think. |

Thought I'd missed out on the best seats at the Lowry, but I've just managed to pick up the last two in the stalls! I had visions of missing Fairport on the Wintour for the first time in many years, so I'm very happy at the moment. |
