The Old Bank Inn, Blackpool

Posted By : Whatever! | Comments : 5

Has anyone heard from the new management?

We've got a gig booked on 16 July and no word from the new management yet. Has anyone that had a gig booked at this venue heard from the new management yet?

There has been no communication and none of the numbers I have for the Old Bank are working. If you are the new manager and you are reading this, please e-mail us on contact.whatever@googlemail.com

If you are a venue looking for a band for 16 July, please e-mail me. First come first served basis.

Many thanks
Whatever!

We played Royal Oak at weekend, and word from the locals was that bands are no longer on at Old Bank. Dont take it as gospel, but they seemed to know

Bugger, i guess that includes us too! We were booked in there this saturday night but we've also failed to actually get hold of the new management to confirm or deny the booking...

... i guess we'll take that as a no!

If anyone needs a band this saturday night.... ha ha

Like I said, dont take it as 100%...but sounded like it...we had planned to go in and make contact but were told not to bother as bands had stopped.

A friend of ours popped in and apparently The New management are not interested in bands at the moment, they have a solo artist on I believe. Maybe when they realise the pub is empty on saturday nights things may change. The pub has also changed it's name
we have lost 3 gigs there too,
Sorry Lads
