To be fair that looks pretty good. I am certainly tempted.

Nice to see the STFC Legends in there. Well done whoever suggested that.
Looks like a decent day out to be fair. Lets hope they get the numbers.
Odd that neither Moyles nor Lightning Seeds have promoted it on their channels. The club will need that sort of support.

While I actually like the lightning seeds, we had them when we went up under Di Canio. Season ticket holders got in for free and there was about 200 people actually watching them.
Pulp are the sort of act that could have headlined on their own without the Chris Moyles DJ night shit and potentially even sold out. I went to Cardiff arena which was sold out 7,500 recently.

They are playing in 1,000 person capacity venues in Oxford and Cardiff on their 2024 greatest hits tour, which gives an idea of their level.

Wasn't that Toploader? I remember Di Canio getting on stage with them and singing (badly).

Yeah I can see that doing okay to be fair. Moyles topping that bill seems a bit strange but there you go.

Was both. I missed Toploader/Di Canio. Think I left after Lightning Seeds.

Oh, right. Thanks. Didn’t remember who else performed. As you say it was poorly attended.

It was a fun day. There was a goal of the season competition, all the squad on the stage, Paolo singing with Toploader, it was fun. Genuinely remember it very fondly!

I thought Chris Moyles would be essentially the host/compere -the DJ sets spaced between the live performances to reduce setup time... it's not a bad idea, a mix of 90s nostalgia with some football nods - but the 'teasing PR' has been more vague and confusing. At least the event looks like it's managed by a professional company.

As I said there was maybe 200 people paying attention to The Lightning Seeds, who I like. So tells you a lot about this.

I'm no expert on tribute bands & the artists represented probably have more than one tribute act on the go, but on the face of it that looks like a decent lineup.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!
