I wish "they" would announce the location ... getting excited, nervous, frustrated and impatient.
Oh well, guess we all know that feeling when it comes to TBA-dates ??  ;)

Me too - I've been checking twice a day to see if that 'TBA' has changed!  I'm sorted for the Strummercamp gig and would like to book my accommodation for the Saturday warm-up. 

So where is this one gonna be then?

Nominations?

Somewhere between Hull & Manchester would be nice for me.  2 nights in a row of NMA would be an ideal way to celebrate my birthday  :)

My front rooms up for hiring out that day, or I can ask at Nice N Sleazy festival over in Morcambe? That'd be a belter!  8)

We have tickets for Strummercamp, so really hoping the warm up is within getting to distance from there!

Hmmm West Midlands - Wolverhampton would do me - Decent venues, cheap hotels and a great rock pub.  :)

Anywhere vaguely on the way from Peterborough to Manchester would be perfect!  :P

North of Watford is an adventure. Wedgewood Rooms Pompey would be fine, thanking you very much. Midlands would be ok I suppose  ;)

Getting warmer then, so only a couple of hours from down here, do-able then!! Can't wait to hear where exactly : ~ D

Map link is to Birmingham B24, is this a hint, a clue or a total red herring?!
Title: Re: Strummercamp warm up

It's a red herring. Venue is not sorted yet. Sorry. As soon as we get the details it will be posted.

Wolverhampton little Civic  or a Stoke gig   on a small scale would be rather good I feel

Little Civic would be great - Went to see My Dying Bride and Gary Numan there last year and thought it was a good venue.

There's also a great rock/Goth pub 5 mins away, that I can imagine full of NMA fans.

That would I'm thinking be the Gifford Arms ? .. decent gothic interior olde worlde  biker/ metal/Rock/"alternative" <----as this seems to cover many genres over the years ! ..  boozer . Indeed and certainly the right place for a pre-gig pint or three ..
Time will tell

Yep, that's the one, I couldn't remember the name - Definately worth a visit pre-gig as it has a decent jukebox, maybe even get a smile with my pint this time.

Little Civic would be great - .
By "Little Civic" do you mean the Slade Rooms on Broad Street?
Just asking as I'd heard the Little Civic has closed and there's certainly no listings for it.

Saw Thin Lizzy at the civic last Friday and it's ideal.Dunno if the little civic is Wulfrun Hall just round the corner.Any of them would be great.

After checking, I meant the Wulfrun!  I haven't been to the Slade Rooms myself yet.

Saw Red Sky Coven at the Wulfrun, a few years back. Great little venue, would love to see the lads there again..

Robin2 would be ideal, but I think it's booked that night.
Other option could be The Riverrooms in Stourbridge.  :D
The Stuffies played a warm up there in Summer 2011

Post by: Himself on February 01, 2012, 11:10:42 AM
yep .. you are correct and I am old ! loosing the marbles ! .. I was suggesting the Slade rooms .. its pretty small in comparison to some but holds plenty  a great little venue alternatively  the larger Wulfrun would do just nice .. Also as said the Robin is another excellent venue too .. choices choices , decisions , decisions ..lol

West Midlands.......maybe its a mispelling and it should read West Essex, North West Essex to be precise, I think I can make anywhere from Braintree to Saffron Walden  ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: Strummercamp warm up
Post by: Juliefrazz on February 02, 2012, 04:40:28 PM


According to my sources.... it looks like this gig will be at the Robin 2 in Bilston.

Which makes me very happy indeed, as this is a brilliant little venue (and wonderfully local) 

 :) :) :)
