I take full responsibility for the costs issue.

I felt it was unfair to demand that our staff (bar/security/glass collectors) and sound engineers and crew work at this event for nothing.

These costs may reduce depending on donations from the staff etc but I am not going to force them to give up their weekly income.

And before you ask... Yes i`ll be working for nothing and crewing for the day. I`m also the person that has paid for the lovely tickets that you can purchase in advance from One Up Records or The Bassment.

Nice plug huh....

I'm happy to go but currently cannot afford to pay money upfront for a ticket due to financial constraints.

We should be getting newspaper advertisments etc next week, sponsorship wasnt sought primarily because at the end, pretty much because by the time we worked out what we were doing time was against us. This was in no way a dig at you TV Tanned, you came when you could and helped out when you could, and your input was appreciated.

I wasn't having a go or anything, i'm also giving up my sunday at work meaning i'll lose around £70 from my weekly income, and i don't expect or want to get paid. All i'm saying is that it can't be *that* hard to find people that actually wan't help out.

I`m not saying that it`s difficult.. I`m just saying that people should have the choice...

That was all.

I'll get a ticket tonight and prod my friends to do the same.

Ross if you've got any posters for it yet gimme a shout and I shall put them up.

It would most certainly be a shame to see this fall through.

Anything I can do to help advertising/just helping out-wise let me know.

Right, I'll get a ticket on Saturday.
It would be shite if this gets pulled.
Who's playing?
