We were considering going to see Thomas Dolby at the Sub Rooms, Stroud, on Friday. Frankly, £38.50 a head seems expensive for someone very popular 40 years ago. I think we may take out our daughter and granddaughter for a slap-up meal instead. TBF £40 won’t get you much of a slap up meal these days either. |

Yes, they played King of Rome at the end of their set. Wonderful! Best heard with the Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band. as at the BBC2 2012 Folk Awards That is rather wonderful. Nice to see again. Thank you. |

In the current market place, personally I think that's a below averagely priced ticket. |
