On 31st January 1998 I went to The ROSES THEATRE, Tewkesbury with a couple of friends from work DEBBIE and PHIL DAVIS who were already fans of Fairport, infact one of them PHIL had been to several Conventions before.

As this was my first experience of their music I was not sure what I would think. I need not have worried as the music was great, so much so that after the show I could not make up my mind which CD, (or how many) to buy, in the end I settled for just one which was titled "Who Knows Where The Time Goes" as they performed most of the songs from it including the title track which is my favorite.

The line-up of FAIRPORT CONVENTION was as follows:-

• SIMON NICOL - Lead Vocals / Acoustic Guitar
• DAVE PEGG - Bass Guitar
• RIC SANDERS - Violin
• CHRIS LESLIE - Violin
• DAVE MATTACKS - Drums / Cymbals / Electric Piano
