The process was smooth booking the tickets. The prices at the venue were a bit steep. Lindisfarne were absolutely brilliant and the time went far too quickly!

We went to see Lindisfarne tonight at The Drill in Lincoln and the show was excellent from start to end. All the classics performed brilliantly. I didn’t expect to cry tears of happiness on hearing Run For Home but I did lol. I recommend seeing them for a great show.

I grew up with Lindisfarne as a constant in my musical background. Much as I loved it, in truth, I never realised the harsh reality, razor sharp observational accuracy and poignant social commentary of Alan Hull's lyrics especially. Hey why would you at 17! Last night finally being 'there' bought tears to my eyes. Such a long held desire was finally realised and Alan's son-in-law Dave's vocals brought it all to technicolour life . Some people might complain that their sound wasn't like the records. I say to them, "Get a chuffin life!" The changes made things all the better. I could finally listen to the vital lyrics, finally get into, understand and revel in them. Get off ya bum and go see them. There is no better band emblematic of the 70s than Lindisfarne.

Lindisfarne are one of the most cherished folk-rock bands to emerge from the North East, blending traditional sounds with sharp songwriting and a warm, communal spirit. Formed in Newcastle in 1968, the group found success with their second album Fog on the Tyne (1971), which topped the UK charts and gave them their enduring anthem of the same name. Songs like “Meet Me on the Corner” and “Run for Home” have become staples of British music, celebrated for their storytelling charm and singalong choruses.
Over the decades, Lindisfarne’s line-up may have shifted, but their legacy of heartfelt, down-to-earth music has never wavered. Known for their unforgettable live shows, from headlining Newcastle City Hall Christmas concerts to appearances at Glastonbury and Cambridge Folk Festival, they remain a beloved part of the UK’s cultural fabric. Their music captures the humour, heart and grit of the North East, inspiring generations of fans to gather and sing along together.
