Wellers are usually reasonable too I know what you mean Even some covers bands are charging 30 and 40 quid
I know, i used to follow the Beautiful Couch a lot 20 years ago when they first started, 4 quid on the door in Crown. Those where the days, anyway im off out for my yearly lads night out tomorrow, so will look forward to being outraged at the price of a pint also
There were some good local bands doing the rounds back then, such as The Grip, All Mod Cons, etc. Don't seem to see as many these days. I guess some of the venues have gone such as Piper, King Billy, Sportsman. Oh yes, and when the barmaid says "that will be £6 sir", don't embarrass yourself and say "no i only wanted one pint?"
