theramm Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 It seems that The Proclaimers are headlining on Friday night. What are peoples thoughts on this? I saw them at V last year & they were OK. Everyone was waiting for them to play '500 miles' then the audience dwindled somewhat....not sure if they've got as many recognisable songs as someone like The Levellers or FLC from last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 They're a great singalong enjoyed them at IOW a few year's ago. They had about 6 or 7 songs I knew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElNobo Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Saw The Proclaimers at Cambridge Folk Fest a few years ago and they took the place by storm. I have to say I was cynical prior to seeing them there but they whole heartedly changed my opinion. They know exactly what the crowd are there for and how to work them. A great festival band and a great kick off head liner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragescotland Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 From an entirely neutral perspective, a Scottish Hibs fan , get a long to see if you can. I would highly reccomend the Sunshine on Leith album to try out, normally a fiver in HMV, or greatest hits if you are that way inclined.

mr blue Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 The played the Avalon stage at Glastonbury a couple of years ago and stormed the place. We were right down the front (a very unusual position for me these days) and were blown away with their rapport with the audience. And I bet you know loads of their songs too, you've just forgotten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
