The audience size on Saturday nights is noticeably smaller than the Thursday and Friday ones (or it was the last few times I went anyway).  The level of engagement in the audience is also noticeably diminished...about the front third of the field looked as though they gave a damn last time I looked...


From what I gather the same could be said for the band last year as well  Undecided

We've booked for the Bridgewater as well, but tickets are hardly flying out are they? In the centre stalls they've only sold five seats in the first six rows, including the front row pair we got on Monday.

Booked for London.  Very much looking forward to it!  I shall be interested to see what exactly they play (and who gets to do Banks Of The Nile...).  Kathryn Roberts singing Sandy is something I'm really interested to hear.

The Liverpool gig is in St George's Hall, not the Philharmonic Hall (or indeed pub - despite the legendary marble bogs).  Ticket sales via the Phil's website.

I'm hoping for a Midlands/SW gig on the "tba" date, otherwise it's Liverpool or Manchester for me.

Well, the Philharmonic website does include concerts at St George's Hall, but no mention of Fotheringay; no mention on Liverpool council's St Geoerge's Hall web page either.  Guess I'll just have to wait...

When I last looked Nottingham was in the Midlands.

The Sunday date as far as I'm aware is still available, if someone fancies promoting a gig in their locality. I'd liked to have put them on but it would only work as a standing gig, which for the demographic I didn't think was the best idea.

For some strange reason all the seats at the back and side at the Brewery Arts Centre have gone but there are plenty in the first 7 rows. I'd love to go but at £22.50 + booking fee I can't afford it.

Very tempted by the London concert but the ticket price (£29.50 + booking fee), added to the cost of getting into London, is putting me off.  That and the fact I can't find anyone else to go with at the moment...

I suspect, but could be completely wrong, that they want to fill the front & centre first....maybe they think that the ayuidience won't be huge?

Or they allocated a block of tickets to an agency who subsequently didn't sell them

You might be right. I've had a look at other gigs there and the back few rows are all apparently sold out while there are plenty of better seats on sale nearer the front. Shows it's better to book tickets direct from the venue than through agencies.

Kendal booked, including camp site.

It makes a pleasant change that the best seats in the house are still available.
