Mrs P and I  went to Leamington Spa this weekend for the all-weekend Fish convention.

The Assembly Rooms in Leamington is a top-notch venue (I'll be going back for The Enid and Pendragon later this year.)  We met up with some great people and saw 5 excellent sets in two days - 3 from Fish, one from The Reasoning and one from the mighty Pendragon.

I have photographs from 4 of the 5 sets on my MySpace page:

and here's some previews:

Acoustic Fish - magical!




Pendragon, who were on top form



Pendragon are playing a marathon 3h set at the same venue - the Leamington Spa Assembly rooms - on 12th December!

The Reasoning, first time for me - enjoyed them!




And Fish again on Sunday Night.  He opened the set with "Script for a Jester's Tear" and the roof nearly came off!

Jon,

nott seriously (yet) but I have considered making a "best of" collection and getting it printed/bound by one of those photograph printing companies.

...but now you mention it I may have to give it some more thought.

Wow - Looks great!

FISH is one of my favourite ever artists, with or without Marillion.

Hope you enjoyed it

Thanks Neil for a great set of photos and a marvellous report. I saw The Reasoning support Fish in Pontardawe late last year, and really enjoyed them along with the big man himself.
