ah well, the good news is they've just renewed their visas for three more years, so they will be back!
Fantastic MPM and PCM.... (yes weren't those high notes astounding! "FREE" in The Promised Land got its own round of applause :))
JVB.....are you coming to Lakewood?
That's great! Are you coming from out of town or do you live in Rochester area?

Unfortunate news: Rick Wakeman has had to cancel his appearance st Strawbs 50th, as well as all engagements between now and June....family member has medical issue and he needs to stay close to home.

Haha....not me.....but I can see how you'd assume since it's Dick Greener who runs the site and my screen name is GreeneKing. Have had that screen name since the early days of the internet, probably...
assume you mean Iron Horse....contact them and ask them to pursue it. In fact get a bunch of people to do the same. The band has done well there in the past.
They’re doing interviews with each of the guests for the website. Fast’s interview is not up yet, but I imagine it will have something about what exactly is his association with Strawbs.
Hey Dan
Regular two-day tickets are now on sale. Go to strawbs50.com for info and ordering.
Now it’s FIVE keyboardists! Larry Fast, Rick Wakeman, Dave Bainbridge, John Hawken, and Blue Weaver!
New announcement today! LARRY FAST will be joining the Strawbs 50th celebration! Watch the Strawbs50.com site for more info.
Yes I believe they are planning to make a DVD. They did for the 30th and 40th so it makes sense :)
Dan I think they want to sell the VIP tickets first before they put regular tickets on sale, releasing unsold VIP seats WHEN the regular tickets go on sale....otherwise if they release unsold VIP...
Gary, just saw Al Stewart on the Moody Blues Cruise in January (Strawbs too)....he was WONDERFUL! Put on two excellent shows. Both Strawbs and Al Stewart (and Alan Parsons and Steve Hackett and the...
Very cool, thank you Dan and Gary!
That's great! There wasn't any announcement on Strawbs website or Facebook page.....did this info come from an Annie Haslam site/page?
and....our hero Ray Coles, (event organizer AND Strawbs agent AND mayor of Lakewood AND he has a day job as well) without whom it might not be happening at all, or at least not in the USA!
Looks like four keyboardists is accurate....So far it's Rick Wakeman, John Hawken, Blue Weaver, and current keyboardist Dave Bainbridge.
AND.....Grave New World will be performed in its entirety...
Event organizers announced this week that Rick Wakeman will join Strawbs for the 50th anniversary weekend, April 26-28 in Lakewood NJ. More info at strawbs50.com

Just working out the kinks I expect....by the time they hit Gravenhurst he was in powerful voice and that continued throughout. He was ill with kidney stones earlier this year & had an operation to...
This from Ray Coles, Strawbs' USA agent and organizer of the event:

Sellersville show on Friday was brilliant!! Included some of the new CD: Nails From The Hands Of Christ, The Familiarity Of Old Lovers (featuring dueling guitar solos from Dave B and Dave L, while...
Received mine last week and I'm loving it....and I've just been to Sellersville PA for the opening show on the tour. I knew it would be great but it exceeded my expectations. The band is so powerful,...
Here's a sample from the new CD...someone's uploaded a few tracks to YouTube, but unfortunately they didn't choose the song that seems to be everyone's favorite, "We Have The Power"...
...
I was there....they were brilliant. I recall the headliner was called something like Sammla Mamis Manna and my friend kept referring the them as "The Salami Mamas".
Still, you really should see...
That release date is for Amazon I think....anyway their agent just posted this on the Strawbs Facebook page....he says that the CDs are arrived in the USA and ready for the tour.

I missed ROSfest but I did see the Iron Horse show! First time there, though I've been hearing about the place for ages....all the good bands pass through!
I'll be the middle-aged woman....well actually only middle-aged if I plan to live to 110...propping up the bar, wearing glasses and some sort of Strawbs garment. I just sent you a message, check your...
Please share with anyone you think would be interested!

I will see you there....just got my copy of the new CD and we are in for a real treat. Oh and if you haven't heard Dave Bainbridge yet....he is just magical!
A few changes since last time I posted in this forum....here's the updated Strawbs tour schedule, and for those of you who didn't know, in addition to the four stalwart Strawbs members from the 70s,...
They will be invigorating this tour as well! :)

No, I'm trying to help a friend who is booking a tour and needs some new venue ideas...it's for Strawbs full electric band.
Oh wow I forgot about the Phoenixville place and Ive actually been there, thanks!
Thanks very much all, keep them coming!!!
Hello all,
I'm looking to compile a list of music venues in the northeastern USA which host national acts, have a capacity of roughly 200-500 and a stage which fits full drum kit and keyboards,...
Hi all....venue has just enabled online sales for STRAWBS full electric band at Lovin' Cup, Rochester NY, Wed May 25 at 8pm. Here's the link:

Can anyone tell me whether I might be able to buy single-show tickets? What's their policy about that? Thanks for any info.
I'm just a promoter, but I can pass the info along to their agents. It is probably too late to add anything to the upcoming tour but perhaps for next year. Thanks for the heads-up!
Here is the complete schedule as of today...sorry, Syracuse gig was cancelled.
5-May Towne Crier Beacon, NY
