Totally agree. condescending ****e. RH were all over it this morning with jolly hockey sticks brocklbank or ' brockers' as she likes to be called, hilariously trying to paraphrase in a Hull accent. And it's a Hull accent that no-one I know has.
Its teking the piss put of Hull people.
Would they paraphrase in a West Indian or Pakistani accent and then all piss themselves on how it sounds ?

Not among the figures released as far as I'm aware, but so far I've not seen anyone mention going to a gig that wasn't pretty much full.
What happened with the John Grant gig last night, originally booked for the Arena then switched to Hull Uni. If this was down to ticket sales than it's quite sensible and dynamic to switch to a smaller venue if demand is less than expected, Uni and City Hall could benefit, are these agreements in place?
 
I wonder what that is as a % of seats available for sale?. 95,000 sounds impressive, but fill rate would be a better measure of success

I asked the question, they said that the sales to date include gigs that haven't happened yet and are still selling, so they haven't got a precise figure, all they can say is that the percentage sales are higher than they'd expected.

I honestly thought Sean Paul was some kind of Ali G style parody artist when he first came around. Can't believe he's still going. Still he's had quite a few hits so I guess I'm just old.
