Talking to a couple ppl on the ground in Scunny saying ITO unless big numbers attend from all over UpNorth it could well be a disaster as local sales have been very slow.
Im sure Mr Zanettis’ recent half time show hasnt helped ticket sales and now this licensing issue may be another nail in the coffin.All this modern music not my cupps tea and 60 quid for ear drum damage unless the accoutics get sorted …. now if Depeche Mode are signed Enjoy The Silence and Jimmy Sommerville Smalltown Boy worth the entrance fee alone…. no need for snorting moon dust either.

I hope, for the Club’s sake, it comes off. But it’s already got the stink of dead animal about it.

The second ‘wave’ of acts were due to be announced last night. Second time Zanetti has missed his own deadline.
After his Chester half-time I’d guess it’s rare that he ever misses a line.

As someone with a broad taste in music, a passion for live performances, and a regular attender of festivals, I was initially excited when this event was announced. However, since then, it has become increasingly clear that the organization behind it lacks professionalism.
With no official line-up released, a website devoid of essential details such as the daily running order, and a general absence of enthusiasm surrounding the event, the outlook for this event is far from promising.
Given the ongoing rumours regarding licensing issues and council permissions, I would be genuinely surprised if the event goes ahead at all. Considering Tom Zanetti’s “performance” at the Chester match, this level of disarray sadly comes as no surprise.

Same here but I didn’t buy any tickets for this one. I’ve been involved in arranging events like this over a number of years in my line of work and you need 12-18 months to get the planning right – you can’t shortcut processes or you end up with the mess we’re seeing. Understand we’re desperate for money but it’s all a recipe for disaster. I hope there is no financial risk for the club with how this has been arranged.

‘A Night of Stars’ in 1966 at the OSG lost money and they had some big names on. The Who remain the best live band I have seen, including October 1965 at The Baths, a life changer for me. UTWI
