Riding six white horses, wearing pink pyjamas, and carrying three white puppies come to mind but there are loads of versions, including biblical ones and some quite rude ones!!
I think people can just make up anything that comes to mind for that one.

Hmmm... looks like it wasn't that good really, I reckon. C'mon admit it yer didn't have all that great a time, didn't live up to expectations, bands were all crap and you wish you'd gone to Druridge instead. No Neil, the band's were FANTASTIC, particularly at the acoustic stage !! And it was warm every day!! Too bludy cold up Norf for a Southern Softy !!!! :-( In the local pub with Farmer Phil, & he's putting the first tickets for next year up for sale next week, so I'm booked for next year!! He's promised us Elson dumps , so a result there! And price freeze on the beer at £3 a pint!!

If I'm not mistaken, Feelgood's lead guitarist & main driving force (played with just his fingers) left a long time ago. (Thought he'd died recently, but apparently not.) Thanks for putting up the great photos, by the way - appreciating what I missed (Although the Druridge meet was also rather good. Think you could be thinking of Wilko Johnson, great musician he was suffering from cancer but made a surprise recovery whilst recording an album with Roger Daltry, havn't seen any recent stuff from Dr Feelgood but can't imagine them without Wilko Edit: Fixed quote, FF

I've tried to fix it for you This graphic from wikipedia may clear up some things: All I can say is Steve Walwyn is a brilliant player and has been with them 25 years. His live performance was stunning, proving he can really play, as opposed to the studio mixing and autotune of so many of today's artists!

Yip, looked him up and realised he was still with us. Hadn't realised he'd left the band so early on - late 70's even before Milk and Alcohol. I try to play guitar myself but wouldn't fancy playing his choppy punk style with no pic - fingers would be stumps by now.

Hope the Druridge meet is on a different weekend next year so I can go to both - will then find out if the festival is really much cop or not.

I think people can just make up anything that comes to mind for that one. Will have to look up rude version. All I've found so far is this Scottish version: Oh ye cannae shove yer granny off a bus No ye cannae shove yer granny off a bus No ye cannae shove yer granny, 'cause she's yer mammy's mammy, Ye cannae shove yer granny off a bus! Ye can shove yer other granny off a bus Oh ye can shove yer other granny off a bus Oh ye can shove yer other granny, 'cause she's yer daddy's mammy, Ye can shove yer other granny off a bus!Oh how we all laughed...

I can't think of a better festival. Moniaive was pretty good. But farmer Phil's tops it for me. All it needs next year is the Peat Bog Faeries!

Much cop or not ? 20 vans loved it this year !!! I'm just being a bit silly and a bit jealous. Does anyone know exactly when this fest will be next year? (not on their website yet.) Want to see if I can get maingate to set Druridge meet to not clash in future - want best of both worlds.

The two previous years, it has been the 10 August weekend, the same as Cropredy, This year it was a week later on 17 August weekend, also the same as Cropredy. They aren't very good at publishing details in advance but if you email them they will probably know if they are selling tickets for it soon. I think it will be one of those two weekends. PS. If I had to guess, I would say it will be 10-14 August 2016 (same weekend as Cropredy 2016) PPS. www.rugbysongs.net/rugbysng.pdf Number 011 (I remembered this from my rugby days... there may be others!!) PPPS. Warning for some. Don't click on the link if you don't want to see rude songs!
