Thread Name: Fairport Convention still folk-rocking..
Subject: RE: Fairport Convention still folk-rocking..
saw Fairports the other night in a seaside retirement resort theatre where the'll probly be one of the youngest acts to play this year..
..they seem to have settled into a more sedate middle of the road folk soft-rock style these days..
only thing really negative i have to comment on the drums is the amount of reverb they're soaked all over in.
..and the 2 photographers poncing about constantly playing with their over illuminated glowing & flashing digital cameras, dominating the middle front row seats, were right distracting annoying pains in the arse throughout most of the performance..
looked like they might have had a punch-up with aggreivated fans at one point during the interval..
