Another great post highlighting the unsung hero’s of grassroots venues. My daughter used to work at the 02 in Bristol (not a grassroots venue I’d say but same set up) when at uni a few years ago. Very hard work at times she said but there was a real camaraderie between the staff and they stuck together when dealing with seriously out of order punters. One venue that IS definately grassroots is Sound Lounge Sutton and off there tonight to see Rosie Frayter-Taylor.
This brought tears to my eyes, Mark.
We are indeed a nation of quiet socialists.
