Procol Harum signing at Cropredy, 9 August 2003

Where fans queued 90 minutes for last night's bill-topper


Procol manager Chris Cooke on Saturday afternoon, in front of the CD sales tent at Cropredy. The BtP tee-shirt hangs up to indicate where the fans are to queue for Procol Harum, who headlined Friday night.

It's very, very hot ... copious bottled water is laid on.
This is just over a week after Procol were rained off
in California

Foreground ... a Procol souvenir card, showing all six band-members;
the photograph was taken by Franky Brooker

Geoff signs the little Cropredy programme

In the background, people buy The Well's on Fire, then join the queue to get it signed

Note the blue armbands, which signify the band's status as performers

Spot Annie Whitehorn?

Bass talk in the sun outside the merchandise tent

And still they come. In the background, groovy festival-wear attracts rather less interest

Is this signing, or pipe-filling?
It's not easy to tell.

Even after the band stands up to leave, the signature-requests continue

Geoff bids BtP goodbye until Christmas ... in the background Chris possibly feels the heat?
