WHAT IS IT?
It’s 3 amazing artists playing 3 shows all on the same night.

There are 3 small venues all with a very different atmosphere:

Trafalgar Warehouse This is an old industrial warehouse in the centre of Sheffield

Upper Chapel A beautiful ornate chapel close to the Crucible theatre in Sheffield

The Drama Studio This is the University drama studio, little used for music but a fantastic little theatre

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Each artist acts as the opening act in a venue, plays 40 minutes stripped down/acoustic set then jumps into a waiting car outside which will speed them to the next venue.

And the same again to the last venue.

So each artist becomes the opener, middle act and headline – and they say democracy doesn’t work!

And the audience sits still, maybe has another pint, has a chat in between whilst the artists break all speed restrictions in order to get to the next show.

The only catch is no one knows what order the artists will appear at which venue. So it’s pot luck. But the important thing is you get to see:

Richard Hawley, John Grant and Bill Ryder-Jones all on the same bill in the most intimate surroundings.

This is great, I'm really looking forward to it. Booked for the Trafalgar Warehouse on :-) Saw John Grant and Richard at the Octagon, they were great together and 2 of my favourite performers.

Should have taken action/grabbed on Monday dammit. Thought I had better ask the missus if she wanted to go, before I bought them. Never mind. If anyone happens to get a spare somewhere along the road, - any of the three venues - please let me know ta Mike

Hi,

Can't do this one anymore unfortunately. I have two tickets at face value + whatever the booking fee was for genuine and true believers out there.

Booked for a day in Sheffield and an overnighter at the Premier Inn. Expect a street photography mission and a trip to Fagan's.

Cracking night - even though finding the Trafalgar Warehouse was a challenge in itself, with no signs and several unmarked doors....! Loved the acoustic version of "Standing at the sky's edge" - John Grant and Bill R-J were most enjoyable.
