By prior discussion Fish could then concentrate on other stuff and we still get a dose is earlier stuff.............. :D


And now someone else has also suggested this.......thought I was the only Marillion fan on here..... :o

True but Stillmarillion do grendel, Fish doesnn't ;) I vote for StillMarillion :p Or even better the Skyline Drifters with the great Rich harding on Vox and the legendary Tony Turrell on keys...

Ta very much

I think you already mentioned that.... I recall agreeing with you at the time, as I do now!! 8-)

You're right I did mention it before but with a different user name as I'd forgotten my password, but Bob has reset it so I'm me again and as the previous one then vanished I felt it needed saying again. At least I think that's how it went :mrgreen:

Myself and a few other fans will be unable to stay for the Sunday evening gig as we have kids (and ourselves) at school on the monday morning :( :? .

Coming, as it does, soon after an extensive FishHeads acoustic Club tour - I would far prefer to see the electric gig on the saturday evening so that I would miss the acoustic one on the sunday. Obviously I would rather not have to miss anything - but have no choice on this particular weekend.

No worries if this is not possible, but I just thought I would throw it into the mix while there is still time to fully consider the logistical possibilities. 8-)


This is a real shame that you cannot stay for two nights Geoff. :( No way around the problem? :?

No problem doing two nights... but it will be the friday and saturday rather than saturday and sunday. There may be options though... :twisted:

Saturday and Sunday is what I meant. - We won't be there Friday as I'll be working! - Given the choice, I'd rather see the full band too, but only because my last two have been acoustic. :)

Same here. I've never seen him play live with a full electric band - only seen the acoustic sets. So a treat for me! :)

That's exactly my point. As the FishHeads tour has been going for over 18 months, it's a long time since anyone saw Fish play an electric set. Don't get me wrong, I would be happy to see another acoustic performance - but I'd be gutted to miss an electric one :(
