Nice one Jester and Neil. A job well done I thought...

Anyone else think that daft-talking bint who was the claimant looked like Frau whats-her-name from the first Austin Powers?

Also, claiming £800+... What the fuck? Did jester stop 'Stranded' from headlining the AECC?
She's claiming the Lemon Tree

If we played five gigs we might make £75...which would be nice. So I think her £800 was a little off the mark..

Yeah, but your fans aren't as strong as Stranded fans.

Can you say that? What if someone reads your post and decides not to invite Neil to a wedding in case he eats too much ice-cream, runs round like he's got ADHD, and throws up on Great Auntie Morag? He could sue you for £100s in lost free food & drink. Opinions - can't have them on a forum

Now can someone explain this "thread" thing again: I've got as far as getting my USB cable through the eye of this needle...

I laughed at that! Brilliant

Gem, that's what I thought, but wasn't sure.

perhaps the £800 was the average cost to repair the venue after stranded's fans had finished

to be fair if she hired the lemon tree and promoted the night herself she may have made £800, it's possible anyway. But if Stranded were just booked to play as part of a night by the lemon tree then they'd probably make closer to £50.
