Hi all

Please forgive the lack of Strawbswebnews in December 2016 and January 2017.

Pre-ordering for the Live At Gettysburg DVD/CD package is now available. Also some acoustic and electric Strawbs gigs in the UK (couple of additional electric gigs added).

And, two Strawbs related shows in NYC on consecutive nights - John Ford plays a guest slot with Ian Lloyd's Stories on 23 Feb (Cutting Room) and Dave Cousins plays at Wesley Stace's Cabinet Of Wonders Show on 24th (City Winery). Details below.
