I'm not sure they'd be right for a Cropredy crowd. Erudite for sure, and melodic, but so were Divine Comedy...
Their current tour is 'The Last King of Pop' (look on Amazon) All the hits from Housemartins, Beautiful South and their duo stuff. Thirty something straight hits. |

Steve Hackett for a return visit? Thoroughly enjoyable last time, and he definitely "got" Cropredy.

I'd be happy for Steve with his brilliant band to return every year. I thought they were stunning. He's touring "Selling England By the Pound" and "Spectral Mornings" next year so he could easily make a little diversion to Oxford....  |

After last night's concert (see Recent gigs thread), I would be heartily behind this suggestion! |

I’d love to see They Might Be Giants on that stage - they played Edinburgh a few weeks ago, and were superb.

Well I would like to see them. They would strengthen the bill in general, but would they sell extra tickets? |
