Bearded Theory 2025

Anyone else get assimilated into The Cult of Orange?  I didn't myself but my missus did and it was funny af.

 

If you missed them, they were all dressed in orange and were wandering round looking for people wearing orange to force them to join the cult.  Once you had been initiated, you were given an orange pompom to show cult membership.  When they saw a cult member walk past they were shouting "Show us your pompom" at them.  Very funny.

My 4 year old grandson was last year, he was dressed in an orange spacesuit, and they proclaimed him their leader, which he loved. He didn't come us with this year, but when we got back, he asked  'were my Orange gang there'. A very friendly bunch

I saw those, both inspired choices. I was guilty of murdering Twist and Shout.

 

 I remember that one!

Your Wanted was magnificent, such a good karaoke song. I think I recognised you from previous years.

Thank you, you're too kind! It is my fav song to sing 🙂

So BT have FINALLY announced ticket day...5th September.

 

Pretty grumpy about them delaying ticket day this year - the sale date clashes with Convoy Cabaret's festival where there was naff all phone reception last year.

 

Don't sell out of early bird tix until I get back okay?!

It's normally September, last year was the exception.

Excellent, the more the merrier! Was just at the farm for Arctangent and can't wait to be back with the convoy crew in a few weeks.
