I love ...Yes I once them in Bolton many years ago. I love Sandy Denny. Her voice is amazing. I have wanted to visit Croperdy music for a while. It holds 20000 people and it's very well organized. I prefer A New Day Festival because it's less than five thousand and more Prog and Heavy Rock orientated. At least at Cropredy they let you take your own grog in. I think if you had a motorhome or booked a room somewhere like Premier Inn you would enjoy it YP.northsider https://www.blogger.com/profile/00716743611909673869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-14338881724482702452022-08-29T04:32:09.246-06:002022-08-29T04:32:09.246-06:00I was a big fan of Fairport Convention but I have ...I was a big fan of Fairport Convention but I have never been to Cropredy.
