anyway... The Lemon Tree webpage has been incorporated into the Aberdeen Box Office site, as I thought.

Go here if you're interested.

It's also available at Aberdeen - Find Theatre tickets, dates and venues schedules but that just links you through to the box office website.

It's good to have them all in one place so you can purchase tickets for numerous venues at once if you wished to do so. The calendar on the specific venues page will show you the forthcoming events for that venues. If you wanted to see what is on at all venues on a specific date then you can do so through the main box office page.

Jeepers, there is nowt on that at all that takes my fancy. Hopefully there'll be some more stuff pending that will whet my appetite.

Agreed, there's nothing on that I'm even remotely interested in seeing, it's just same old, same old. The much-heralded second coming of the Lemon Tree looks like a big fucking anti-climax in my opinion.

Maybe you just need to give them time. Nobody promised an all new and improved version immediately. As far as I can gather, the priority was just to get the place up and running again as soon as possible and take it from there. It takes a long time to build an ongoing programme and they were basically starting from scratch. Hopefully things will keep getting better as they go on.

There isn't going to be much music programmed until after summer, probably about September time I think. There will be nightly events during AIYF.

I went to see The Wasp Factory there and it was amazingly good. Bodes well for the future.

The Lemon Tree has always puts on some great theatre & dance

what i dont get is the lemon tree went under ( this is just my point of view by no means a informed one ) cos it was putting on too much wankie highbrow stuff no one went too
so with the lemon tree reopening and it being now ran by Upcoming Events - Aberdeen International Youth Festival's Social Network if i look at their line up for the next while its all more of the same

am i wrong? if so please point out my failing cos all i can see is maybe one gig with The Chair, Edgar Prais & The Condiments

im all for a bit of culture but give us some thing to lure me in with

im not just moaning about the lack of bands playing but in general theres nothing for your common music fan here i wont entertained for my hard earned for instance in the edinburgh festival for the past 3 years josie long has any one seen hide or hair of her in aberdeen
no
shes been nominated for a few awards and lives in the uk so wouldnt be too expensive to get up but has any one done it no
when the lemon tree put on rich hall it was sold out so why not get more acts that will sell
surely that way they can then make money and put on their high brow stuff

like on the music halls website for the lemon tree they say they have danny bhoy on the 29th and pretty much bugger else comedy wise

its not like we dont have people here who dont know their elbows from their asses like we have giles walker, tez and interesting music promotion for starts

like giles put on hudson mohawk and i salut him for it now get rustie up and if you give me the heads up for more good music il even consider buying you a pint

tez knows whats hot

interesting music are getting great stuff up like the pictish trail supporting king creosote and de rosa

it just seems a waste of a great venue for it to go down the same route it did before

"im mad as hell, and im not going to take this any more!"
