Haven’t missed the Fairport Winter tour in years. This is the first time seeing them at the Royal Northern College of Music though. In recent years, they’ve played the Lowry.
They were on form as usual, with a mix of old, not so old, and new material. The jokes fit into the same three categories 🙂
Support for the evening was provided by the (inaccurately named) Four of Us. Apparently they count the guitars as well… OK… Whatever…
The two of them, along with their guitars, had plenty of songs about growing up in Northern Ireland next to the border during the troubles. Worth checking out if they tour near to you.
