Personally I would prefer two electric sets with Feast spread across both. I am sure it will be to the normally high Fish standards but it may well 'quiten' the audience if all played on one night.

And an acoustic set one of the afternoons.

And Stillmarillion as support..............

Sounds like my perfect musical weekend.....if only Tori, The Eves and The Mission could be persauded.......... :D

Would still vote for Pendragon, again- I know Mr Barrett loved it the last time.

The Sausage wasn't a great venue really, very poor on the drinks front and not really the space for a band when you have that many people.
As for the Electric/Acoustic debate I'd rather have 2 nights of electric but if just one then I'd add my vote to making the Saturday night the Electric night/party night then make Sunday a chill-out day.

Some people seem to be assuming that the album launch means a full live play though of the album. I don't know what is actually planned but I was assuming the album would be played over the PA for everyone to hear, that's how most of the album launches I've been to in the past have worked.

I'll probably be alone here, but I've never had any sneak previews of new Fish albums, before actually sitting down and listening to the full thing in the comfort of my own home. I kind of like that too, so I'm hoping that he just plays a few new tracks and holds some surprises back.
