It's a hell of a good line up isn't it though! I think I am only going to manage Swinton this year so I won't see too much. Unless I manage a couple of days at Fylde - rain permitting! Maybe Tull will be at Manchester again soon and, hopefuly, get to see Maddy Prior in 'Span or the Carnival Band at Christmas.

I think we can answer the thread question with all those reasons and, maybe, pure cussedness! Human nature could be an enveloping phrase for all of them I guess:-) At least it isn't, often, spite or maliciousness. I hope human nature is, generaly, better than that.

I have certainly had food for thought and will, hopefully, explain the whys and wherefores of why I do or do not like something better in future. I doubt it will catch on universaly but, as they say at Tescos, every little helps:-)

Cheers

Dave
