Stadium Weakender

[Apollo11]

Looks and sounds like a complete disaster in terms of crowd numbers, event logistics and (probably) finances. Anyone any clearer on who is picking up the tab for this folly – Zanetti or our Club?

[CMC]

Rumour Example is going to be a no-show

[64]

Both tickets holders will be pissed off

[Deereyme66]

I heard Dirty Sterling were complaining about not being paid. Is that true?

They also only got to play a third of their allotted time.

[Deereyme66]

One third?! That’s some reduction. Due to other acts overrunning I assume.

[64]

One local band didn’t even get to play

[ironfromafar]

It does sound like a bit of a shambles ..

[CMC]

History repeating itself – like that concert of yesteryear.

[Deereyme66]

At least that one had a decent line up, not Poundland posers.

[ironlion82]

Was told that 18000 tickets sold ?
Also told that every penny made goes to the Club and any losses nothing to do with the Club. Is that right ?

[Awaywego]

No doubt it will be a financial flop but daughter and grandsons said Friday was very good.

Deffo be more than 2 there 64 After your Fatty promoting, my daughter ended up getting 9 freebies.

Not for us old foggies anyway, would cramp the young uns style.

Remember feeling to old for the baths hall crowd and i was only in mi twenties.
Guess things have changed now especially it being a festival, not that I’d know mind.

Surely Zanetti’s paying stadium hire and the overheads and the club take the bar and percentage of sales?

You would hope that there is minimal financial risk for the Club and that the stadium is merely a ‘hired space’.

Great to read the many positive comments re the last night of the weekender being well attended and “bangin” what ever that means ..even TZ receiving acclaim.
Having just watched some of the acts i can only say …bloody ell i feel old !!

Now thats over its retained list time and hoping for as many as possible of the group to stay.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

In fairness the last night looked a hell of a lot busier.

[premier iron]

Dirty Sterling have been paid

[premier iron]

The guys who were looking after the sound etc thought that the event was one of the worst managed they had attended

The sadness for me is I work in the event industry,in the last year or so our company helped to plan the Champions league fan zones(very complicated ) ,Englands Vicotry parade,(never happened ,the International investment summit in London, and most recently Tottenham’s victory parade .Our company helps to plan ,Victorious festival and and BST Hyde park concerts among many .Whilst we do the traffic side we work with some of the biggest companies in the game and most talented planners ,many of whom are self employed. When they announced this I offered to give them some contacts at the Trust AGM, I was rebuffed politely. Knowing the many facets of planning such events I have witnessed in various meeting over the years to get an event over the line I though the idea of an internet influencer organising it stupid. I still do

You put traffic cones out you bullshitter.

[Iron-awe]

That’s funny the President of Turkey calling 64 a bullshitter.

yes of course I’m lying,what a daft racist clown you are. You upset I blocked you and others from Yaxley Lennon’s fan club on twitter?

[Apollo11]

Footage I’ve seen of the Sunday night event looked decent – a lot more people there than on the other two days. That was good to see.

[ironlion82]

Has it been announced how much money the Club made from the Weekender Event ?

[Rene Artois]

I don’t believe so and can’t see that they will.
