Actually no, Sweltered £15 to see 4 bands to me is not steep. Three very good local bands, Catch 22, Violent Echo and TWisted Melons will all be on show as well as The Complete Stone Roses and you have a night's entertainment from 8pm - 2am in the morning for £15. I'd call that a bargain.
Spoke to Craig today and ticket sales are going well - don't leave it to the last minute mind you.
Promises to be an excellent night.
Couldn't agree more Davie. There are very few people in the town who are willing to risk the financial outlay to stage a concert of this type so full marks to Craig Dickson for having the required bottle.
I used to hear the "that's a wile price for a ticket" mince when the Festival committee put together the main concerts in the Vic even though there were 3 or 4 bands on the bill. Some folk seem to think that these concerts just happen and everyone does it for free, unbelievable.
Hope this is a huge success and encourages the likes of Craig and Ian Johnstone to continue to set up gigs in the town, cos if not them, then who??
