rocket666 19th Nov 2021 | | Live MusicMarillion @ Little John's Farm | OH DEAR, Oh Dear. What do we have here!!
1; there is no such location as 'Reading Rock' ;- All Reading (Berks) festivals, under various names, have been at 'Little John's Farm, Richmond Avenue, Reading' since 1972ish.
2; clearly at the top of this poster the event title indicates the festival (small f) moving on to Lilford!
3; so with over 10 years success at Reading why would that Council refuse a licence for 100 miles away? - and could they?
4; Most likely a licence refusal from Thrapston Council.

rocket666 13th Nov 2021 | | Live MusicA Weekend In The Country @ Cropredy | After further checks, I can reveal a huge error in the otherwise brilliantly produced '.....Capers' book.
The Saturday support acts there have been swopped from 1985 to 1983 and vise versa!
If that has been corrected in a later edition I could have a rarity there.

rocket666 12th Nov 2021 | | Live MusicFairport's Cropredy Convention (Day 3) @ Cropredy | Cropredy, Cropredy, Cropredy, such a nice weekend in the country. Pete Frame's original Rock Family Tree (April 1979) called 'Resolving The Fairport Confusion' showed a tangled tale of a band with links to numerous folk luminaries, over 15 different line-ups.
An updated family tree from March 2002 has 4 more line-ups - after #15 split in August 1979 (Farewell Farewell gig), and several reunions from '80 to '84, Fairport fully reformed then onward.
The title above could now be used about the Cropredy Festival history too.
All previous anniversaries on programmes were about the band - XXXV in 2002 and 40th in 2007.
This year, 2010 all mentions are about 30 years of the festival (1980 to 2010); inaccurate in two ways or more; mathmatically that's 31 years and geographically as '80 and '81 were at different locations.
