Wow, what a week it's been! Unfortunately, not all good. It seems that covid is very much back in all our lives, and as a result of this, we find that we have no alternative but to postpone next Saturday's gig at the Corp featuring Outlaw Orchestra and friends. The decision didn't come easily and there was more than one reason for this decision.
1. Safety safety safety
We feel that as always even if we have thought of everything, and made sure that the gig was as covid secure as it is possible to get, the risk still remains, especially with the dramatic rise in cases across the country.
2. Sheffield could well be in line for becoming a tier 3 city by the time the gig is on which of course would result in last minute cancellation. We would rather give notice in good time than waiting until the very last minute to let people know.
3. Public confidence in live gigs at the moment is low and a large number of our ticket holders have already decided not to attend. We wouldn't mind at all taking a couple of hundred pounds loss on the whole thing just to see a live gig go ahead. However, the venue needs to be paid, the technical crew need paying, the bar staff need wages, the security etc. All this would have left virtually nothing to pay the bands with. No matter what the circumstances, we firmly believe that bands should ALWAYS get a fair payment for their performance.
4. This gig will be back. We are looking at a date in early January. All tickets will be valid for the new date and full refunds will be made on request if you prefer. We will be emailing every ticket holder personally by the end of the weekend to give them this information and ask how they want to proceed.
Rockin the Bowl and Forge AMP / Forge Ahead Initiative would like to thank every ticket holder for continuing to support live music and helping this stricken industry to keep fighting. We would also like to congratulate the Corporation Live Music Venue on securing one of the rarest things in the country at this time - a grant for a grassroots venue which has helped to secure their continued existence.
Cheers Dude🤘🤘🤘Will see u there? 👍
