IONA - TREASURE

not sure where they are playing?

[@deb12jones]

I was there!!!! Sitting on the bank in front of them. It's Lindisfarne Priory, Holy Island/Lindisfarne. High up on the Nothumberland Coast, just south of Berwick. The cradle of Christianity for England. Great day. Great Band!

Dear Deb, i was there too!! Brilliant day. Spine-chilling gig! I was on Holy Island last weekend too, deep thin place. All good wishes to you and yours Deb. And thanks Steven for putting this on. True blast from the past. Jackie

The programme was called "Routes & Rhythms" shot in June 1995 and shown in the July. It featured about 7 songs and an interview with Dave and Jo....and featured Terl's infamous yellow bucket floor tom!!!

I remember this well as it was my first live Iona gig way back in 1995 filmed in the ruins of Lindisfarne Priory on Holy Island. Seen them 40 more times since and they've become good friends :)
