Fairport's faircop at Cropredy 13/08/09

And so to the last show........

That fabulous institution of Fairport Convention's....Cropredy!

So with an early load in successfully executed James, Si-Fi and Ross head back for the boys..

Ross, now in JT's shoes so to speak, wonder's why his new ipod isn't playing System of a Down anymore.....Simon and I stay to await the arrival of our families...and get a few zzzzzzz's

It's not too long before I'm left holding the baby!

Well, Gabriel did have a little scream when he arrived and was calmed by Simon Nicholls' wife, while Kelly got comfortable...

Jimmy takes up position at the front of house tent with Si-Fi snapping a few shots....and keeping award winning James company.

Cropredy's friendly family festival vibe is not lost on the Winwood crew and band...

Steve's friend's Mike Kellie and Bill Hunt turn up along with Eliza and her fella too.. We also get to meet Ross' lady Sarah too...

Simon's pregnant lady Dee and son Jack arrive, Karl's Wife Tessa with Afi and Remi complete the family vibe...

My son Curig and Karl's boy Remi, already firm friends, hit the festival and go off and cause mayhem side stage...

The picks up where those fabulous Buzzcocks left off....Big hi to Steve Diggle who spent some time with us before the show drinking champagne and waxing lyrical.

A wicked show indeed!

Dave Pegg is behind me the whole show and later joined by the rest of Fairport, except Simon Nicholl who graces James and Simon at front of house... Steve Diggle also turns up to enjoy some top playing from the band and a hot performance from Mr.Winwood!

So we hit HQ for a few beers and a wind down......
