This is a competition without a prize.  List up to five artists that you think might still make the lineup for Cropredy 2018. 5 Points for a headliner, 3 points for other acts and 1 point for offering to buy me a pint. James Taylor Jackson Browne First Aid Kit KT Tunstall Galleon Blast |

Saw Galleon Blast at Wirral last year. No beer for Colin from me if that's on his list.
Not keen to repeat the experience. However, they were followed on by Lindisfarne who played hit after hit for over two hours and really rocked the place up.

Camel
Seth Lakeman
False Lights
The Rails
(I'd be over the moon if James Taylor or Jackson Browne did play, though!)

Hawkwind Radical Dance Faction Stiff Little Fingers Faith No More Patti Smith Probably unlikely.  Galleon Blast would be a great addition, though. So funny. Never fail to disappoint, as Mark himself might say. |

Dream Headliners for me would be any one of ;
Subway to Sally.. Would love to see the Potsdam Bulls live anywhere the UK
Three Doors Down Love these guys .Don't know why they aren't better known in the UK.
Saxon Just brilliant songs.Wheels of Steel and Princes of the night in particular.
The Cure They would eat the field and spit it out live. A show as energetic as Alice's
Kaiser Chiefs Allerton Bywater is a quiet ex pit village , how it produced these guys???
more chance of Jacob Rees-Mogg defecting to the Labour Party and joining Momentum than any of them though.

The headliners don't always go on last.
If the top turn is acoustic, they can go on before something boisterous to finish the day.

As PJ seems to have reformed LJE for a few gigs this summer, perhaps an option. They're certainly overdue a return to Cropredy. |
