How about this news from elsewhere on the Fairport website:

I saw The Muffin Men featuring Jimmy at Fairport's Cropredy Convention
festival last August - the band was awesome and Jimmy was in great
form. The crowd loved it. As I am lucky enough to work at the festival,
I got to chat with Jimmy backstage and found he is a great guy - full
of laughter, witty, very friendly, and with loads of good stories.
Fairport's Cropredy Convention takes place every year and you can find
out everything about it on the band's website - take a look at:
