I think they're all Grannies now!   Bully for CCBC to get such a fantastic act - who am I kidding???  _))*

You may mock and scorn Yorkie. I probably won't be going but I'd be prepared to bet that it will be a full house.

I think you should polarise your view. Should we leave the VC un-used (which you don't like) or book acts that you don't like?

On this Forum we are all entitled to our opinion.  I have mine and my comments should be respected as I respect the comments of others.   The Nolans even joked amongst themselves in a T V interview recently.

I'm sure it will be a sell out,

We may not agree on all we discuss, but then the World would be a dull place if we did!   ZXZ

Yorkie, I'm a bit confused! Have I dis-respected your opinion? I certainly don't think I have. In fact, I enjoy (agree or disagree) many of your opinions on here.

You have been very critical of the lack of use of VC in the past and I simply posed a question. Isn't that what we're here for?

Which just goes to indicate how the written word can be mis-understood.  No facial expression, no body language, it is all just too clinical.   I'm sure that if we read between the lines we have an understanding of each other.

It is a pity that VCR is not a commercial concern, it would then have to make money.   But how long must the ratepayers have to keep it running with heavy subsidies?

Well what a good weekend for the hoteliers,Cambrian rally in town so they make a few quid,but why are they not more vocal when it comes to Venue Cymru Arena,if they had just one concert a month it would generate a lot of beds taken,especially if it fell on a weekend.Imagine one concert a week that would generate lots and lots of beds booked,with two hoteliers on the council i can;t believe not one of them has a clue.

Simple Minds tickets are £37.50  :o.

I do quite like them but not that much so I'll just stick with their Greatest Hits CD in the car (which cost 99p from Cash Generator in Colwyn Bay).

The Vaccines are "only" £18.50 but I don't know anything about them.

We bought two Simple Minds tickets, and we were also able to reserve two more... which we have to take up (or not) within 3 days.

There was no problem, so fair play to Venue Cymru on this occasion.

Andy, £35 to £40 is roughly the normal price for any band of note these days.
