STRAWBSWEBNEWS MINI-MAIL - AUGUST 2007

Sent: 24 Aug 2007

Dear All

Frantically busy after having had time off for Cropredy (nice to see some of you there - it was a fabulous weekend and Strawbs seem to have gone down very well in most quarters). There are loads of pictures from varous people - I'll be continuing to add them as I get them - it was great to see the band on a huge stage with plenty of room, and daylight has allowed even amateur snappers such as myself to get some reasonable pictures.

Latest news in about the two Fire re-union gigs - the venue and booking details below.

And there are Acoustic Strawbs gigs in September and a few other delights to come. More news next month.
