Your Letters
Thanks so much for all the letters of thanks - it was a great time for all! We've put together some great quotes from the letters we've received, and also compiled a chunk of mini-reviews that you've sent in! To get a taste of what went on, read all the fan reviews from the Marillion Weekend 2002.
"Great vibe, friendly people and spot-on organization over the entire weekend." Craig O'Brien
"The convention was a blinding success and brought colour and hope into many a grey life." Julian
"It is gonna be impossible to go back to 'normal' life after this weekend!! I've never felt so much positive energy at the same time!!" Peter
"What can I say ? I'm still reeling..." Rick Collins
"My husband (Steve), son (Jake) and myself have just spent 3 of the most enjoyable days with 2000 other people, all with the same aim, of seeing a band and listening to the music that they love." Dawn Fenton
"Everyone was great, even the person next to you in the queue. Marillion fans really are a cut above the ordinary folks." Fraser Marshall
"When are tickets on sale for next year!!" Iain Siney
"Thank you to everyone who organized such an awesome event, especially the web team and the back-up crew/stage technicians - they all deserve medals." Ruth
"I have just enjoyed one of the best weekends of my life, and it's all thanks to a band that has been in my heart for some years now." Keith Ellis
"Absolutely fabulous. We can live on this for the next year." Hans Kroon and Marloes de Wit
"It was a good idea to take the family, I was apprehensive to know whether everyone would have a good time but we all did, and I have discovered the absolute joy of listening to an emotional song while holding a child who is listening for the first time, and enraptured... wonderful stuff!" Jon Collins
"The convention was the ultimate Marillion experience and a vibe like the one of these last few days couldn't have happened with any other band." Simon Clarke
"I've already tried to explain the amazing vibe to a non-believer today and failed miserably - you had to be there." Mike Palmer
"If you didn't make it, you missed something very special." Keith Wickenden
"What a weekend. Utterly unforgettable. Yesterday at work was just so damn crap in comparison!" Steve Hill
"Awesome, what a weekend, back to work today after sleeping most of yesterday, depressing reality kicks in." Colin Ashworth

It was the musical experience of my lifetime and that is partly due to the people that were there." Jeffrey Pelletier
