Sunderland music thread

Might be a daft idea, but how do we get in the ears of the decision makers of who puts bands on in Sunderland. Make sure Pop Recs, the Fire Station, Independent & Peacock are aware of what we want as gig goers? I know we’ve already got @dodgem on here from the Peacock. Would be mint if we as a selection of people who go to the gigs could potentially have an influence.

The naive bit about this post is I don’t know how it all works. Does someone want to tour then approach venues, do the venues approach management & say hoy us on the list for the next one, or a bit of both.

As an example, Frank Turner at the Fire Station that I mentioned to @GTG. Brògreal are playing the Cluny in September, Pop Recs would have been class.
A guy called mark shemmings deals with all bands on a Friday in the long bar and I’m sure Barry deals with Saturday long bar bands, for venue gigs I’m guessing it’s promoters that sort them ☺️

Museum vaults Sunday has House Proud headlining and recording a cassette release for Serial Bowl records so they want the audience to make some noise. I'm hoping to have recovered from my Cardiff trip by then

Slightly off topic, but just seen a Tribe of Toffs on BBC2 5 minutes ago in a program of weather related songs performing “John Kettly is a Weather Man”. Great to see a SAFC scarf adorning the drum kit. These lads must be mid 50s now as song was circa 1990.
