Only thirty, there's at least five that i know of in the Notts/ Derby area alone

Only 52 weekends in a year - take out 6-8 weekenders - leaves you with approximately 45 weekends to go at. Blackburn & Prestwich in the North - which are always well attended - take out another twelve - how many are we down to now?

Too many gigs - not enough attendees.

I tend to go to the ASE in darlo when I get the chance though that is getting fewer and farther between these days, I do find it quite surprising though that small venues still play on clash nights with big local venues such as Piercebridge and even Whitby for us, Whitby it is quite a distance from Darlo but it will affect the numbers. Still so long as everyone at every doo is enjoying themselves that is all that really matter to me.. :thumbsup:

Yep totally bonkers, but to be fair they are pretty much spread around the country Steve...think it brings home the need for promoters to get their act together though , happily i think its something we are begining to do in Northants...we have culled our events down by half and as you know We Got Soul has gone bi- monthly.. Len is no longer doing the Embankment and although there is another night starting in Rushden i was speaking to one of the promoters last night and he only plans to do a few a year...cant speak for any others as i dont know their plans...but i do think its starting to sink in with most promoters in Northants....see you at Sallys do on Friday :thumbsup:

Certainly thins out the members online here :thumbsup:

Wish people would feel a bit more positive about the fact though, isn't it wonderful to think that the popularity is still healthy ? There will come a day when we will probably not find any ! so why not rejoice in it instead !

As others have said, if the people at them are happy whatever the numbers then great.

Bigger isn't always best anyway.
