Strange how everything keeps coming round again.

Let's hope we get some decent bands on and not the same old tripe that gets put on at the few live venues we have now, and please no over charging for some old past their sell by date smacked up talentless manc indie bands please Mr Hewitt or Tractor.

The problem will still be down to venues.

I don't think I've seen a new crop of landlords offering up their lounge bars for music. Most pubs don't hold 200 people so are exempt - but are the musicians and the landlods going toget a fair return?

Only time will tell.

As for medium to large venues - Rochdale is still sadly lacking.
