Bar wise you can’t go far wrong with the Cathedral Quarter. The likes of The Harp bar, Duke of York or John Hewitt are decent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 44310 Posted November 16, 2024 Share Posted November 16, 2024 I’m deep in the heart of Yam Yam Country, Telford and now Wolverhampton. I’d have been parked up and showered a whole lot earlier if they hadn’t taken 5 FUCKING HOURS to unload me at Telford. Honestly man, the only thing thicker than the daft cunts tipping me were their accents. I fucking hate the Midlands 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7447 Posted November 18, 2024 Share Posted November 18, 2024 Speaking of old gigs, I found a music paper from 1990 in a charity shop on Saturday. Remember what gig prices used to be like! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 48555 Posted November 18, 2024 Share Posted November 18, 2024 I saw Madonna once. An hour late on stage. She'd already lost the dressing room at that point. I don't think I unfolded my arms for the full show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
