  15. this came out about 3 years ago. Walls of Nazereth is also top.... Most of the stuff on Ed Bangor is Mint! The dance scene is really kicking at the moment. Lots of nasty low end dance records with a groove to it instead of all the rubbish high female vocal dull house nonsense that has berated the radio for years. Always in cycles.....such is the way. rm
  16. Actually.. this is a bit sci-fi and also a bit hare-brained but what about this: As a Live Music Fan you can opt into a scheme which costs £10. You fill in a form that has your name / age and date of birth and submit a photo (passport style). Also included is a password. then this is put onto a card with a bar code..... Everytime you buy a ticket it is added onto this card. Thus you have all of the tickets that you have purchased stored on the card. When you walk into a venue then you scan the card to exchange tickets. As a member of such a scheme you are entitled to certain pre-sales etc but are restricted to 4 tickets max. This way you are trackable through the system so if you are an Honest music fan you are rewarded. I actually justthought of all of this now and typed straight from my thoughts... so apologies for further ramblings... but you get the just. rm
  17. for starters this will probably increase the price of tickets. I think for every show there is round about 5 to 7% of the audience that have bought tickets but don`t end up making the gig... As a promoter the "profit" is usually made in the final 10% thus if up to 7% return tickets then the promoter technically stands to make money with 3% It is a fairly widespread situation that the promoter takes the risk to make very little profit from the final 10% but will absorb 100% of losses if something doesn`t work.. Chances are it'll mean that promoters will be slightly less willing to take on a show unless they are certain that it will recoup..... Arguably it may be better to always make sure that there is a quota of tickets that are available to buy in person andlimit this to two at a time. I know that when i was up in Aberdeen i made a conscience effort to have tickets on sale from an outlet aswell as online and also to make sure that at least one outlet was booking fee free. Following the move south this has continued and i know that DF's CEO Geoff Ellis is adamant that DF want to have an outlet where booking fee is not charged or is as little as possible for all of their shows. Maybe this is a panel at a Foyer Music session........ ~ Dave Stewart ? Apologies if i`m rambling. rm
