GREYSTONES SHEFFIELD

Postby GORDON » Tue Sep 23, 2014 4:32 am

I'm saddened to report that my concert on Wednesday at Grey stones in Sheffield with Clive Carroll and a very special guest has been cancelled by the venue due to poor ticket sales.Having to cancell shows always leaves a bitter taste but to travel all that way to play to an empty room would have been humiliating for the artists and embarrasing for the audience,and in the light of these low ticket sales it wasn't worth taking the chance in the hope that sales MAY have improved on the night.

I find the whole scenario after all these years in the business quite depressing actually.

Once again deeply sorry about this on many levels.

It's doubtful I shall play the venue again.

Be Well folks.

Hi Gordon,

So sorry to hear that this concert was cancelled, I can only imagine how frustrating and disappointing it must be for you. Those people in the area obviously don't know what they are missing with the opportunity to see both you and Clive Carroll in concert together!

I made a long cross-country drive over to Sheffield to see you perform at a packed Greystones on a very hot evening in late May 2012. It was an unusual venue tucked away in the residential depths of Sheffield (I thought I was lost when I finally spotted Greystones), but your superb performance and a very appreciative audience made it a great evening.

If I was in the country I would have certainly made the trip! As I have said what a wonderful opportunity they are missing.......

All the Best,

Roger
