Just spoken to Tina the landlady as we were booked to play on the 22nd.
She was very apologetic and says that the decision is out of her hands, they can't afford bands when they're only taking £250 over the bar.
She also asked me to point out that she isn't on the net at the mo and so can't be contacted via email or on here.
Number is 01942522778

shame really, the place used to do a bomb a few years back, but money is tight and unfortunately it isn't in the middle of an affluent estate.....Tex

Yeah - was looking forward to it!

Did someone speak?

What a shame we were hoping to play there next year because we had heard it was a good venue. Hope it gets back on its feet soon

@ DLD - seven bands played there for free last December and the Banner took thousands of pounds over the bar on that All-Dayer and then The Banner cancelled these same bands. Who is the tight arse as you put it?

It's not even the original dalek troll. *sigh*

Hey Dalek
I'll get my band to play for free if you introduce us on stage, in person.....with Hulkamania waiting in the wings.....but that will never happen because you're a faceless cowardly shithouse.....

# Posted by Bad Horsie (Mick) - 09/06/2010, 22:59 (GMT)

Gary, it's a different troll.

3 Daleks? They must be breeding OR they are all in the same band....

# Posted by LAST GANG IN TOWN - 09/06/2010, 23:01 (GMT)

Mick
How many Daleks are there ????
Maybe best to ignore them anyway eh.....

# Posted by LAST GANG IN TOWN - 09/06/2010, 23:02 (GMT)

Mr Cotton House....go on, name names.....

# Posted by Bad Horsie (Mick) - 09/06/2010, 23:14 (GMT)

Gary, there were 3 last time I bothered counting. Ignoring them can work, but it's no fun. I just go for the person sat in the chair, not the account name. Their tiny little pee-pees tend to get all knotted up when the troll doesn't have the desired effect.

CSI Cottonhouse is still working on the case but unless Mr Dalek has alzheimer's (and can't remember the passwords) I can't think of a good reason to have 3 accounts...unless they are three seperate peeps.

Who knows? Who cares?

# Posted by The Cottonhouse Shakers - 09/06/2010, 23:59 (GMT)

There's actually only 2.

# Posted by NIGHT TRAIN - 10/06/2010, 00:03 (GMT)

3 seperate peeps with remarkably similar names? Not much originality there then!

# Posted by The Cottonhouse Shakers - 10/06/2010, 00:17 (GMT)

Only 2, she/he just changed the name.

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 10/06/2010, 09:01 (GMT)

3 seperate usernames:

daleklovesgarlic - the original
dalek - the first imposter
daleklovezgarlic - the second imposter

I may have mentioned this before, but they should all be ignored.

# Posted by 45's - 10/06/2010, 09:04 (GMT)

@ ST, ignore who?

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 10/06/2010, 09:46 (GMT)

@Rick - Exactly.

PS are you at the shop on Sat morning?

# Posted by 45's - 10/06/2010, 09:51 (GMT)

@ ST Not normally but I can be.

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 10/06/2010, 09:54 (GMT)

@Rick - I'm on my way to Blackpool on Sat morning. Failing that, I can pop over one evening next week? Whichever is best for you.

# Posted by 45's - 10/06/2010, 10:02 (GMT)

Sat Morning to suite you.
