Fish & Marillion on stage together again!

I don't know if this has been mentioned before... I couldn't find anything...

Is anyone from PA going to the *FREE* Fish gig in Aylesbury on Sunday (26th Aug) ???

It will be the first EVER time the Fishster has been able to do "Market Square Heroes" in THE actual market square.....quite an amazing and possibly rather emotional event!

It's part of a free all day music fest in Aylesbury market square....starting at about 11am, Fish due on stage at approx 5.45pm, and is promising to be a VERY special event indeed.... I have managed to move heaven and earth to get to this gig (an hour of reliving my mis-spent youth....worth every second I reckon!) My daughter has nicked my orig Clutching at Straws t-shirt to wear and I am getting unbelievably excited!

I hope some of you guys can make it along, I think it's going to be quite a blast!

Well, how was he?

I'll be seeing the Great Man in Manchester in September, can't wait!

I am exhausted,  & a little wired... Fish did his solo set

White Russian
cliche

Incommunicado

I think that's how it went (!?!?!?)

 

Then returned to the stage with all the old boys to do MSH...........IN THE MARKET SQUARE!!!! Incredible!!!

A few thousand screaming folk, grown men weeping, girls swooning.......... flipping incredible!!!

What a day!!!

Great to see my old progrock-messiah ("the giant with the soul of a child"  ) anno 2007, thanks for the pictures

It was really great, the whole show was really good, but counting on his 'old friends' and hugging them in turn as they took to the stage, the crowd in the square just went nuts.... I mean nuts.... then again hugging them all off stage, lots of smiles an it really was great to see..... Mark Kelly was grinning like a cheshire cat the whole time!

I am so glad I was there..... at the end of the song, when everyone was screaming their heads off, Fish said "Thankyou, I am the Fish, and they are Marillion" and bowed to the band...... and as the others walked from the stage he shouted "This is the first day of my f**king life!"

It was truly brilliant to be in that crowd!
There were about 15 (I kids ye not) pro/press photographers in the press area, so there should be some good pics about before long!

       

Wow, I'm insanely jelous, wish I was there.

Great pics Rachel.

Thnks 4 pix!!!

I know how you feel I adore these guys too

I was devastated a long time ago when my at the time favorite band had changed how I missed Fish and Marillion together. ..  I`m almost afraid to entertain any ideas its a bit like breaking up with a person then them calling up for a catch up and you still care about them but you don't know if its worth the pain to get any hopes up. Thanks for the pics and news I`ll remain realistic about this emotional occasion 

how I feel about it >>

Excellent, I know how you must feel, PC. When I saw Steve Hillage & band play together for the first time in over 20 yrs, last year, and they did the Fish Rising set, you could have shot me through the head, my life was complete!
