I think this tells you where the gigs upto July are out. That outdoor gig on the 15th isn't going ahead.

The same reason I was sceptical about Trees going ahead and this is a sufficient amount less capacity.

To be fair looking at the dates, if Diana Ross doesn't decide to press ahead for whatever reason they'd have to do the whole stage setup, bars etc for just bryan Adams, idles and the script, maybe its not cost effective to do it that way? Could even be the case that it's not cost effective to do it all for 3/4 compared to 6 with no guarantees whole tours wont be rescheduled

Waiting to see the Victorious lineup this year actually.  Never seem to be anywhere The Coral play!

It was £30/maybe 35 in the end and we had MSP, Travis, Editors, Boomtown Rats for fun. The Coral, The Levellers, DMA's. There was Sound of the Sirens and an act on a smaller stage that did like 90s cover and a KOL covers band to open. I mean that's ridiculous value. I went to Trees the same year I think and both are up there with the best value I've paid.

Didn't there used to be less dates for Eden originally anyway?

I've had doubts for a while though hence I've held off buying JEW tickets as I think they are going to to push it back.

Think it’s more because of the 3 overseas acts not being able to travel and not wanting to just for that!

Why not just do it for 3?, it only uses to be 4 I think?

Maybe they don’t feel it’s cost effective setting up for the 3.

Yeah regarding Eden Sessions it's probably not worth it to put on less dates.

Especially as the other 3 would have no doubt been their big sellers

Yeah exactly, might even run at a loss/breakeven if it's worth it for the other acts and possibility of making drink/food sales. It might even be that the food vendors etc. (never been so not sure what the food vendors are like if any at Eden) don't want to do it if a few acts have pulled.

Probably less hassle to have it as a attraction this year rather than organise gigs which may have to cancel anyway.

I didn't even know they were supposed to be playing gigs til I just looked! Normally I'd want to see them in Manchester but I'm not sure even with my gung-ho approach to this reopening that I could hold my nerve for an indoor gig in July...that said I'm not sure I'd ever go to Manchester academy in summer, a sweatbox even in winter!

They are healing 2000 Trees outdoors in July. I wouldn't go right to Manchester for JEW.

Much closer for me! Though I do try to avoid it as much as possible after living there for 10 years...just a shame all the biggest local gigs are there

@ShakeyCrash I'm taking a punt that's one you've been to?

[Clarence Clemons]

has anyone heard anything about the Haim London show on June 18th, whether it looks like it will go ahead or be postponed?

[ShakeyCrash]

Not been to clwb in a little while but very fond memories from many a happy uni day. It’s split over three floors and the top is where the bands i watched played. Small and intimate and always has great bands

I've been there once before about 3 years back, main recollection of it was that I was only allowed to buy one drink at a time so couldn't get a round in, although that might have just been the person serving rather than a policy!

Nice small venue, lots of stairs but easy access from city centre and close to a lot of bars, right by the Principality. I liked it

Rescheduled dates

[Quark]

Annual winter knees up with Dub Pistols in Brighton booked. That is going to be absolutely fucking joyous. Might even break my normal rule and book myself a hotel for the night, unless I can convince Mrs Q to come pick me up.

October Drift sorted as well, plus Beautiful Days. Today is a good day.
