Got wristbands for Smiths/Morrissey - went to see Coum on Sunday, and the Ferens etc.

They're constructing a rooftop drinking terrace at the Humber Street gallery, had a snoop. Should be grand.

Not for the people who are spending over £150k on those flats in construction just behind, the council sneaked that bastard in, just to be ****s to the builder
 
Playing at Trinity House school yard on the 23rd June.

Well one part of that information must be incorrect
I got tickets yesterday, but not via any special route. Just normal City Council website (actually Mrs Tash got them)
 
I just checked on the internet - tickets went on sale yesterday but it said you could pre register which is the german equivalent of putting your towel on the sun bed

We didn't pre register, and got them fine late yesterday afternoon
The gig wasn't exactly a surprise, the poster including ticket outlets was posted on this thread a while ago

I'll say what I said before
If you want tickets to events in Hull this year you need to move fast I'm afraid

Because we're all cultured as **** now

And what about all the people who haven't got access to a computer eh.
How do they get tickets.
The intersection of people wanting to see Primal Scream and not having internet access must be vanishingly small. But there's always that new-fangled telephone thingy.

who ****ing cares - they can either queue up at the box office or don't go - Echo and the Bunnymen are hardly the must see act of 2017 are they and as for Primal Scream, who the **** are they anyway
 
The song ‘A Place They Called Forgotten Town’ is a musical and lyrical reworking by Hull-born Henry Priestman of his late 1980’s chart hit ‘Forgotten Town’ by The Christians which was written about the state of the country at the time (the North especially), which particularly affected his home town Hull.

Produced by Hull-based Humber Film the music video will feature more than 20 Hull community groups.

Lead vocals, recorded at Fruit Trade Music, are Martin Clappison and Emma Fee of The Mighty and the Moon. Emma is also part of The Happy Endings.

Humber Film strategic manager Malcolm Joslin said: “The video will be a vivid and memorable portrayal of Hull as a community of optimism and renewal, marking its shift from a ‘Forgotten Town’ to a city that is becoming a top attraction in the UK.

“Hull becoming the UK City of Culture is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the people of the city to stand up and show the full range of their abilities to the world, including the artists and community groups involved in this amazing project for the Creative Communities Programme.”
