As I write, the Knebworth countdown is on – with 6 days to go to the actual 30th anniversary of the first show, and 10 days to go before the return to Knebworth Celebration Day Event. The Knebworth book is currently at the printers and may well arrive next Tuesday which would be quite fitting.

Thirty years ago just about now, I commenced a Knebworth countdown religiously ticking off the days before the big date. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one.
History is somewhat repeating itself as I shape up for another busy August all these years later.
The Knebworth book is nigh on a wrap in terms of design. Martyn and I are just liaising over the final revisions. The last few days have been pretty intensive trying to tie it all up – a big thanks in the direction of Lorraine Robertson and …
