    It certainly was not a scam !! I am sorry to say it did start later then expected, red brick house played support as i already said would happen Tucan came on at 11 and played until 12.30, from 10.30 there where Tapas in the top bar and the pig was eaten by 1am !!!! It was the first time we had tried to do something like this and the organisation side will be better the next time, but it was not a scam.... there was no entry fee :confused:

    As I said early on the Tucan night we should have been better organised... sorry.
    Next sunday afternoon there is a trad session in the top bar from 3~6, if you can make it down, ask for stephen and I will buy you a pint. I only work there and make nothing from these events but I do care about guests enjoyment. The ballina show is on the same day so not sure how many will show up to this.
