Re: Mean Fiddler, 6th April

["Nathaniel Mumford" <nathanielmumford@ho...com>]

Well I missed the first half. After being warned to be there early, too. 
arse.
Came in during spitting out miracles, so i missed Days of 49 which seems to 
have been a triumph right round the country. dammit.
Anyone got the first half of the set list? I assume i missed raise the roof 
and tree full of starlings too, and up in a down world? Jacket hangs?
The applicant was bloody brilliant again. And i got the old shiver down my 
spine during beautiful is.
might have to leg it to leicester at the weekend....
