srbramble 0 Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) So, in 2004 we had Tony Hadley & Javine 2005- Bjorn Again 2006- Bonnie Tyler and Tony Christie? 2007- X Factor and.... ? 2008- Belinda Carlisle and Chas n Dave? And the person responsible for that lot has still got a job? Some local pub venues do better than that. Maybe its the local pubs who arrange it. Keeps everyone outside until the last minute. At least that would explain such shocking lineups. Edited May 9, 2009 by srbramble Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomhaines 68 Posted May 9, 2009 Maybe the pre-meeting entertainment should be Scott Nicholls vs the Under 15's this year... I know who i'd have my money on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So the pre-meeting entertainment is an extra and not really what people go for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colincooke 0 Posted May 10, 2009 I've just been reading Jeff Scott's " Shifting Shale" & it appears that BSI used a "Queen Tribute" band at their leg of the 2006 play off final at Reading The book gives the very honest impression that the band we're utter pish & couldn't even sing in tune. Please don't tell me BSI have brought these Goons back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squall 270 Posted May 10, 2009 Please don't tell me BSI have brought these Goons back. I couldn't care less. Not seen any entertainment in all my trips to Cardiff. Pubs are cheaper than the stadium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pubs are cheaper than the stadium That's true enough squall, if it is the very same i'll certainly be staying out of the stadium as long as possible, the earlier start makes that much easier.

Knowing me I'll get that sozzled I'll forget the earlier start and stagger towards the stadium at 6.55pm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
