Hi Michael,
Any idea how to get tickets for the Liverpool University gig.
I keep checking events site but to no avail
Cheers
Andy
Hi Andy
Thanks for your perseverance. I do have the info now - and in fact will be making a new post tomorrow giving updates on several parts of the tour: but I can tell you now. The gig will be at 5pm on Thursday Feb 17 in Lecture Theatre 1 in the Sherrington Building, Ashton Street, Liverpool L69 3GE (free admission and open to the public): and to reserve a place e-mail Jackie Bracken: comprm@liverpool.ac.uk, stating the date time & place of the event.
If you do attend, please come and say hello. Thanks again for your support.
Hello again. I was actually about to contact you as I too had difficulty finding exactly where the Liverpool event was taking place. Now I know. Hopefully I will obtain tickets. I know you always say Ive heard it all before ..but I do enjoy it! See you in Feb (hopefully)
