June show in Devizes
« on: May 09, 2013, 07:28:57 AM »
Just a heads up. Anyone planning on going to the Devizes show, the venue has a capacity of 400 and over 50 tickets sold on the first day of sale. It might be wise to get your tickets sooner rather than later!

I live in the town (and am partially responsible for getting the band booked) and can reccomend a few good pubs. The British Lion in Estcourt Street is the town's only true Free House and whilst operating a no kids in the bar policy, does have a large beer garden where kids are welcome. The Crown in New Park Street welcomes families during the day (and do some great food). The Silk Mercer in St Johns Street is a Wetherspoons with all that entails (cheap booze, food, kids welcome) plus it's only yards from the venue. The Bear Hotel is actually next door to the venue but is very expensive. No pub in town is that far away from The Corn Exchange, Devizes town centre is pretty compact.

Thanks for that, really helpful, really looking forward to the gig, feels like this one will have a similar vibe to the Subscription Rooms in Stroud a few years back and that was a great night

Quick update all round...

PARKING - Easiest car park close to venue is Station Road - simply drive through Devizes Market place, in the centre of town, taking the turning down past the venue, car park is on your left.

SUPPORT - Is GAZ BROOKFIELD, a Swindoner based in Bristol  - who has just completed a tour of Europe opening for The Levellers, and has also supported the likes of Frank Turner and Newton Faulker in the past.

TICKETS - As of today, we have sold 300 tickets - the venue only holds 400, so if you're planning on coming, buy them asap! Or encourage friends to. This show is easily one of the more intimate you're going to see them at.

PUBS - DJ Tufty has made a good account of town, how ever, I'll add THE LAMB in (Just past Silk Mercer) - which, has one of the best pre-show atmospheres going. Regular music there, as such is a muso's pub AND it's festival tradition to take the performing acts there for a drink...

I look forward to seeing you all!

thanks for logistical info sounding better by the minute, NMA in a sub 500 venue outside of a big city is as good as it gets for me personally

Been checking out some of the Pubs online, and most seem to close at 23:00  :( Is there anywhere we can get a drink after the gig or is a Travel Lodge room party?
