@Henryhathaway58 Hi Peter,
My boyfriend Tim would like to ask you a couple of questions about Mr Chipps and whether there's any recordings out there apart from the single on Spiral.
He's on [email protected]
Many thanks
Delia

Possibly the biggest thing to ever happen to the grassroots music sector. This will save hundreds of venues across the country and keep access to live music alive for everyone for generations to come

[Culture, Media and Sport Committee @CommonsCMS]

The Government has responded to our report on grassroots music venues.

We will keep banging the drum to ensure the industry and Government protect our live music ecosystem.

Our Chair @cj_dinenage gives her thoughts ⤵️

[The Lexington @thelexington]

@CommonsCMS @cj_dinenage This is a life and culture changing policy. Thank you so much

[Mark Davyd @markdavyd]

Going through the detail of the budget, it is clear that @RachelReevesMP has taken various steps to try to create a relatively budget neutral situation for small businesses. This macro position is sensible and fair, but has unfortunately missed a micro issue on Rate Relief 🧵 👇

Steve Lamacq with the winners of this year’s Outstanding Contribution to Grassroots Music Award 2024… YOU!!! All of you in the grassroots music venue community. Thank you for everything you do, for every fight you have, and every win we chalk up.

£1 on arena shows to go directly to GMVs - the R&D of the whole industry - is a lot less than all the fake fees currently added on to the bottom line, which the artist never sees.

[Music Venue Trust @musicvenuetrust]

Huge thanks to @Gigantic for their much needed support. We are dealing with a record number of cases of venues facing closure, these vital funds help us to offer them the support they need.

[Piney Gir @PineyGir]

That’s right! Oct 13th @thelexington I will be doing my one-woman-show revisiting my debut album #peakahokahoo as it’s the 20 year anniversary! Can. Not. Wait. See you there x p

@RhonddaBryant @musicvenuetrust @DCMS @lisanandy Please come and see how much work go into GMVs and the massive number of people we entertain in these spaces. You are welcome any time! The DCMS report is a great starting point to recognise and protect the massive cultural value of what we're doing all over the country.

[The Lexington @thelexington]

Hey @EmilyThornberry please bring this to @UKLabour as we need a fan led review of the ticketing system in the UK

[Mark Davyd @markdavyd]

Dear ⁦@lisanandy⁩ ⁦@RhonddaBryant⁩

The ⁦@CommonsCMS⁩ Report proposed a fan led review. ⁦@musicvenuetrust⁩ asked ⁦@DCMS⁩ to back that call.

It’s in your inbox and we are ready to help deliver it. We can start tomorrow. https://t.co/ZhWy4sFh0g

This is desperately required. As are responses to all the other recommendations in the excellent Select Committee Report.

Especially the fact that these Oasis shows have contributed nothing at all to the grassroots sector economy.

This beauty is one week old!
