Huddersfield Gig may be cancelled

It is not uncommon when booking gigs at this lowly level for a venue or promoter to go out of business between the time at which the booking is made and the date of the gig. It looks like this has happened to our May gig at Bar 1 Twenty in Huddersfield.
Usually you'd expect to hear from the promoter to let you know but not this time, I just came across a thread on the Huddersfield Music Scene forum which tells the story. Thank god Jon of mighty Tetsuo fame started the thread or we might never have know.

This is a shame for two reasons:

1. I'd just printed the 'tour' fliers with the now incorrect Hudds gig listed
   
2. This gig was timed to take place the week before we hit the studio to record 'The Third Album' and would have been a great chance to knock out the last few kinks and also whet appetites for the new material on home turf.
   

So it looks like the venue will now be run by the same people who run the Gasworks live music venue in Bradford - the myspace for the new venue is myspace.com/gasworksbar2

I have no idea at this point if we will be able to rebook a gig as the venue will concentrate on Tribute acts and Touring bands - which is probably a better idea than the apparent previous policy of chucking any bunch of gits with 15 minutes of ill rehearsed material on stage to drive out punters before the headline act even change into their dancing trousers. Good luck to them!

We'll keep you posted.

But not to worry, there are many more gigs in the pipeline.
