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.
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.

It's a no from me, but then I wouldn't have gone if it was the original artists, with the exception of Queen.

Looks a good line up to me. Be interesting for me to compare pretend Queen with the real thing I saw at Knebworth.

We go and watch a few tribute bands, but there’s not any on the bill that I would go and see.
Certainly not something I’d travel down for, but does seem like a reasonable spread of bands so may appeal to anyone living local

Don't shoot the messenger but the poster the club have put up potentially breaks rules. The Tribute acts should be placed above who they are tributing. The reason being an unsuspecting punter (they do exist) could believe that Coldplay and Adele are actually playing rather than the actual acts in smaller font.

Snitch  I assume a load of our 'fans' on twitter are now vigorously trying to get the club charged and fined in relation to this.  |
