Concert????

[jimmybee]

There was never a bees united concert wat happened wat went wrong?

 

[nocoat]

Well they have gigs every friday :beer:

And I think they have got the Stones down to 'NAM rugby stadium this Saturday! :bound:

 

[jimmybee]

I'm talking about a proper concert not these gigs that make a little bit of money which is good of course but a big concert would raise our profile and raise some serious money

 

[RodBee]

Farnborough tried it a few years ago and lost £30,000!

The problem is to get in the necessary experts to organise the event, but not to pay out all the 'profit' in expenses to these experts!

Could be a money spinner but a Summer event due to possible poor weather and there is no time left this year to organise such a venture.

But why not next Spring/Summer??

 

[JonnieGee]

Discussions are now taking place with a view to holding one in June next year.

 

[Jambo]

Bristol City do them every summer.

Last year they had the likes of Liberty X etc

This year Bryan Adams

sh*te music I admit, but raisese loads of dosh apparently

May have problems with GP though, bit of a residential area

[jimmybee]

b***ocks u r trying to tell me bristol city got bryan adams to perform in a concert where all the profits go to them yea rite.

 

[nocoat]

bad jimmybee . I don't know if they do or do NOT get all the cash... but re-read the post and it says

"...but raises loads of dosh apparently.."


It does not say all proftis :thumbs:

 

[jimmybee]

Yea well its completely irrelevant then i was asking about what progress has been made on a concert for bees united surely it can't be that hard to organise u need decent artists though obviously shouldnt be that hard to get em tho for our cause.

 

[jimmybee]

we need sumin to raise 200,000 min.

 

[nocoat]

No i fully agree... why would a well known artist try and raise his profile by doing some aids, homeless, starving millions benefit gig, when they can really shift their albums by gaining publicity down at the theatre of bird sh*t

Yeh, it's a piece of piss jimmy. Shall I give you Mick Jaggers mobile number then you can ring him and organise it.......

Bristol City have a big stadium, in a big city, in a big region. They have the monopoly, next stop is either Cardiff or London realistically for a stadium gig. If they do concerts they would make money from it.

We have a poor stadium in a big city, which is extremely well served for concert space, however I believe Lionel Road has potential as a smaller alternative to Wembley for less popular acts because of transport links.

However a one-off concert would be cool.

 

[jimmybee]

why would i want mick jaggers number i sed good bands not a pile of old crap that were never even good 30 years ago.

 

[Jimbee]

So you don't want acts that will be popular and attract large crowds, you just want ones you like? Nice idea.

 

[King Bee]

Ok, I can probably get Hell Is For Heroes, Mower and Papercuts to play at the gig although most of the Heroes support Rangers-Scum.

 

[jimmybee]

mick jagger wouldnt play a concert for us thats wat im sayin he's a selfish prat.

 

[CJC]

We could get the Bluetones to do something, maybe, they're bees fans.

They're from Ealing and one is a Bees fan!
I believe they have been contacted and its being worked on!
(although they obviously have a very busy schedule!)
