Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Mark on February 08, 2007, 04:35:04 PM 'will be playing a club within an hour's drive of Banbury' on the Wednesday. So London or Birmingham or anywhere between? Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Sir Martin on February 08, 2007, 05:03:46 PM Beeswen also have this;
Fri, 20 July 2007 Conkers, Bath Lane, Moira, Leicestershire The Waterside Centre Box office: 01676 540219 See Tickets National Forest Folk Club and Festival RT Solo Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Pugwash on February 08, 2007, 06:46:09 PM There's hint of another (maybe solo) gig the following night on the Festival Tours website....RT 'will be playing a club within an hour's drive of Banbury' on the Wednesday. I seem to remember some TAWers seein the rain god at a small venue in Abindon a few years ago? Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on February 08, 2007, 07:31:56 PM Hmmm - yes, that was a solo gig. Somewhere on Beesweb, the RT website, it states...
"Wednesday Richard plays his own full concert with the RT Band at a club just outside of the Cotswolds" So, unlikely to be either London or Birmingham.... Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Neil Morrell on February 08, 2007, 11:44:54 PM I reckon that he'll be playing at the Robin 2 in Wolverhampton on Wed 8th August. Just a feeling ya'know.............
Potentially the nearest to me so far.... Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on February 09, 2007, 09:46:48 AM You're dead right....here's some others - right through Cropredy week as predicted!

Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on February 09, 2007, 10:02:21 AM Hmmm.....American's can sometimes be geographically challenged outside of their own country.
(As can we, of course!) Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: davidmjs on February 09, 2007, 10:04:57 AM Hmmm.....American's can sometimes be geographically challenged outside of their own country. (As can we, of course!) ;D That's true - it's not even in Wolverhampton is it - it's Bilston I think! Seriously, the Robin is a good venue for a decent band...seen Ratdog and Jefferson Starship there... Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on February 09, 2007, 01:28:33 PM I've got a ticket for Bilston Robin2.....
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on March 09, 2007, 09:56:42 PM More dates, solo this time on Beesweb (http://www.richardthompson-music.com/Tour.asp) - including one in Costa Rica!
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Jim on March 10, 2007, 09:20:26 AM who have thought that RT would have sunk so low as to be playing coffee shops for a gig these days
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on March 10, 2007, 04:16:11 PM Probably depends on how much wonga was on offer!

Seriously, the Robin is a good venue for a decent band...seen Ratdog and Jefferson Starship there... I saw Barclay James Harvest Featuring Les Holroyd there a few weeks back. RT usually plays at Warwick Arts Centre in Coventry, which is just up the road from me... No sign of him there this year! Annoying. Bilston's actually part of Wolverhampton. Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: davidmjs on March 10, 2007, 08:22:14 PM Bilston's actually part of Wolverhampton. Not if you live in Bilston, or are an estate agent it's not ;) Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Harbottle (Martin) on March 12, 2007, 09:27:28 PM Bilston's actually part of Wolverhampton. Not if you live in Bilston, or are an estate agent it's not ;) It looked like an absolute dump... typical grim suburb... Fast food joints and shut down shops. Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Tasha on March 13, 2007, 01:26:43 PM Bilston's actually part of Wolverhampton. Not if you live in Bilston, or are an estate agent it's not ;) It looked like an absolute dump... typical grim suburb... Fast food joints and shut down shops. The end of the British steel and metal industry saw the demise of Bilston- it still hasn't recovered but is in a regeneration programme. Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: David W on March 13, 2007, 01:51:44 PM who is in the band this year?
Jackdaw Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on March 13, 2007, 02:22:33 PM AS far as can be ascertained - the same as last time....DT, Mike Jerome & Pete Zorn.
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: David W on March 13, 2007, 02:40:16 PM Cheers Chris, that'll do for me ;D
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on April 06, 2007, 10:24:10 PM There's a band date at the London Roundhouse that is (for this venue) reasonably priced, as RT gigs go, on Saturday 20th October, so maybe a band tour in the autumn? Link here (http://www.ents24.com/web/artist/8304/Richard_Thompson_1.html)
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Chris on April 21, 2007, 11:07:45 PM Indeed, there is - starts in Glasgow on October 15th. Details on RTs website.
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: Angela on April 21, 2007, 11:54:34 PM I see he's playing at the Guilfest, bit expensive for us though.
Title: Re: RT Band UK Gigs 2007 Post by: MarkV on April 22, 2007, 08:54:35 AM I see he's playing at the Guilfest, bit expensive for us though. Well thats it! I shall be going to Guilfest. ;D Bit local for me, so it will be daytrips I think! |
