Title: Stornoway - farewell tour 2017 Post by: davidmjs on October 25, 2016, 05:44:24 PM Sadly I was rather too prescient after seeing Stornoway in Nantwich and noting that I thought their time was probably up. Well, sadly, now it is...
Statement and farewell tour details. I shall miss them greatly. http://www.stornoway.eu/ ps but I might go and have a chat with Brian at his day job one day :) http://www.southwales-eveningpost.co.uk/record-numbers-of-wading-birds-at-llanelli-wetland-centre/story-29708096-detail/story.html Title: Re: Stornoway - farewell tour 2017 Post by: blagden on October 25, 2016, 06:02:39 PM Shame ... only saw them once and found them a little bland unfortunately but they seemed like really nice guys.

Title: Re: Stornoway call it a day Post by: davidmjs on October 26, 2016, 06:55:52 PM I'm sure a friendly Mod will do the business. See you in Manchester? :)

I quite like the idea of Oxford, their final gig in their home city would be pretty special, but in the end I suppose economics will dictate that it's Manchester, although Academy 3 isn't my favourite venue there by a long way.

Title: Re: Stornoway - farewell tour 2017 Post by: hendo (Dave) on October 27, 2016, 12:28:36 PM Saw them a couple of times, gave an album.
They were on the cusp f becoming mainstream a few yrs ago but it didn't happen. Sad but they produced some lovely stuff and have now gone the way iof most bands. People age, grow, change , have different goals............ Title: Re: Stornoway - farewell tour 2017 Post by: davidmjs on November 01, 2016, 04:48:20 PM Manchester gig upgraded to Academy 2.
