OMG ... this is shaping up to be the best line up ever! Will have Beware of the Flowers as an earworm for the foreseeable future, but that's a price worth paying 😁

Is he bringing Wild Willy Barrett? 😳😳😳
oh joy, rock royalty
Great stuff so far, thank you! Only a handful of acts and I'm already worrying about clashes in stage times ;) Got one of the early EarlyBird tickets and Glamping ...so very happy so far...this'll be my 5th Wickham, you never disappoint :)

Hurrah. My favourite
Superb. One of my absolute favourites......Thanks Peter and Team! Starting to drool already.....
Saw them at the Brook last month and now looking g forward to seeing g them again at Wickham 🥳
Please consider Robert Plants Saving Grace, his latest project which is very folk based.
Seen in East London. We've booked Ronnie Lane's band Slim Chance several times. They're great! Have you any photos of other roads named after musicians?

Here's another. Heinz Burt Close in Eastleigh. Named after Heinz, the former bass player of The Tornados (famed for their hit Telstar)
Not named after me as such, but I’ve dj’d the silent disco the last 2 years for Bug Beats Events at the Wickham Music Festival! 🤣🤣
There's Charles Watts Way at Hedge end of course
Hi Pete. Did you see my email. Croft No 5 have reformed!! 😊
I saw Ronnie Lane’s Slim Chance in 1976 in the Roundhouse, Chalk Farm. What a great band.
Marylebone, London
As part of the 'other festival' in Pilton you will find a new road Maggies Farm, not a band member but of course from Bobs tune.
How come? 😉
OK - I need to get out more! Here’s a little something to fulfil the request!
Ash Smither
Can't remember where this was now but great name 🤭
Of course its Swansea so it may be the Welsh Dylan
Spotted this in Partinico, Sicily.
In his home town of Paisley.
Not a road name, but Billy Bragg Bicycles sign in Gillingham is one I remember from childhood. Obviously not that Billy Bragg!
