I'm going because it's Ralph. There are only a few artists I'd cough up inflatable prices for.

Sad to say, but £30 for a top drawer solo act isn't inflated at all these days.  Where Richard leads, others follow...

Well, yes, but I saw Roy Harper earlier this year and it cost me less than 20 quid. On the whole, though, the Sage seems to be  more expensive than it used to be.

I thought Roy was charging £50+??!!  That must have been an offer because he wasn't selling tickets?  I did hear that a lot of the venues hadn't sold out...

Just checked my ticket and I was wrong about the price. It was actually 27.30 pounds.🥴 I bought it more or less as soon as they went on sale.I dont remember what the more expensive ones were. What I do remember was the fact he played in Hall One, and there were plenty of spare seats. Possibly those attending could have been fitted into Hall Two, which is smaller and nicer.

Edit: I think I was confusing the price of my RH ticket with the price of my ticket to see KT Tunstall, which was around the same time, and  did in fact cost less than 20 quid.

Even I'm unsure about buying tickets for Cadogan Hall in December. Ralph @ Leola reckon that concert is still on?  :-\ :-\

Public transport/trains, crowds, theatres, who knows by then? Watch this space I suppose.

This is from Ralph's email this week...

"....Ralph does still have 1 date this year which we all hope will be able to go ahead. It is at the Cadogan Hall, London on Saturday the 5th December, tickets will go on sale later this week."

Odds very much against, I'd say.

Keep an eye on Ralph's website and Facebook page for recent and hopefully upcoming video performances.

You're correct. Postponed until May next year!  ???
