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.
Probably on the event organiser that one. |

Yeah, not the club's fault. But I do wonder if there is some loophole. Fake festival is well established and has the same look https://www.fakefestivals.co.uk/events |

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.   I know you aren't being serious but as Chalkies said, it's almost certainly on the organiser. Which begs a different question. |

Might be because the name of the event tells you it isn't the real acts. |

That's true. I dunno, it was just something I was told that sounded interesting. Perhaps it's something and nothing. I probably should have kept it closed! |

yeah the name of it and saying tribute festival supersedes the other rule I should think. One off gigs though I can imagine that to be the rule.
Although why anyone would think Oasis were playing The Vic for example is another matter.

About 2009 our Freshers' Week was headlined by Kins of Leon. Multiple people thought it was a typo, and a band that were headlining Glastonbury/Reading were playing a midsize provincial university fresher's night. People aren't particularly critical. |

I was actually sat in the vic one night with a mate who wasn't originally from Swindon and he says looking at the pictures of mostly tribute acts on the walls "that one isn't very clever....just says the name Ed Sheeran". Had to tell him he actually played there a couple of times. |

Have we given up on the Monthly Nonsense?
Nearly 2 weeks since it took place.

If the Trust announced they had seen the books and everything was fine, do you think anyone would accept that? |
