Kenny Jones the drummer of the small faces, faces, and the who, owns a polo ground! And he votes Tory. Rock n roll!����
Oh ....and New Order wore polo shirts.


  And there's only one true rocker in New Order - Peter Hook, and I've never seen him in one.

Last word ......for Jules........before a mod comes and tells us off.....

However, I completely agree with Jules, rock gods shouldn't wear polo shirts.
Ageing audience at Cropredy, totally different matter.

Polo shirts are about as rock and roll as a subscription to GQ magazine.

PS  They're not folk rock either.

'50 Years or Bust'?

I like this idea.
Colin, you have far more skills than me.
I suggest a pic of a suitably bedraggled old folkie , ideally a cartoon, (Koen?)with the words,
'I know where the times gone'

Dear Editor,
Koen Hottentot, member of this parish , is the fabby artist who did the pastiche cartoon, of Sergeant Pepper as ' Sergeant Croppers yearly Fairport Band' 97 I think. Koen will correct me.
If you want anybody to draw a cartoon. He's your man.

Think I'd prefer "Who knows where the time went", or, if I could think of a way to make it scan, "I was so much older then, I'm in my second childhood now"
