Mrs P and I went to Leamington Spa this weekend for the all-weekend Fish convention. The Assembly Rooms in Leamington is a top-notch venue (I'll be going back for The Enid and Pendragon later this year.) We met up with some great people and saw 5 excellent sets in two days - 3 from Fish, one from The Reasoning and one from the mighty Pendragon. I have photographs from 4 of the 5 sets on my MySpace page: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=328159521 - http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=328159521 and here's some previews: Acoustic Fish - magical!   Pendragon, who were on top form   Pendragon are playing a marathon 3h set at the same venue - the Leamington Spa Assembly rooms - on 12th December! The Reasoning, first time for me - enjoyed them!   And Fish again on Sunday Night. He opened the set with "Script for a Jester's Tear" and the roof nearly came off!   ------------- Question everything, believe nothing We talk music, we talk nothing |

Jon, nott seriously (yet) but I have considered making a "best of" collection and getting it printed/bound by one of those photograph printing companies. ...but now you mention it I may have to give it some more thought. ------------- Question everything, believe nothing We talk music, we talk nothing |

Thanks Neil for a great set of photos and a marvellous report. I saw The Reasoning support Fish in Pontardawe late last year, and really enjoyed them along with the big man himself.
