I know there is a video somewhere on YouTube (think it was at the Lloyds amphitheatre after the Cotts double bus tour) of the players on the stage singing Drink Up Thee Cider.

Anyone know if it is still available? You used to be able to buy copies in the gift shop in the Museum, but i don't know if that's still the case. Written by Derek Robinson (Dirk Robson) . EDIT: *It appears that an original is worth a few quid if you can find one! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Waiters-Bristle-Correct-Speak-Bristol/dp/B000MLDJLE, but it seems to have been rereleased under a different title? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Load-Old-Bristle-Waiters-Dialect/dp/185306792X/ref=pd_sim_14_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=33B6YENYWEV14FW9MA9B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 At Glastonbury a couple of years ago we got talking to a couple of obviously northern lads. We got chatting about football and one of them asked 'what's that song you sing about a blackbird'?' he had heard it being sung whist he was in the away end and couldn't make it out. They wanted to learn the song! So be proud of me people, I had a Blackburn fan and a Preston fan belting out 'I sees Ee and Ee sees I' at 2.30am from the top of the hill overlooking the festival!
