    someone mentioned PA

    powers that be have started to arrange that, something to do with an obligation to last year etc, before i was voted in.

    sooooo,

    since ive already had one doubter already, (thought i paid my do's last year lol)

    i should hand out more info eh?

    now this isnt final, its subject to change, like i said at the start of this thread its early days.

    the bands involved at the moment ARE:

    DURESS, NEMESIS, NO EXIT WOUND, LYLE WATT, SAXIFER, DIESEL N DUST

    im sure i didnt leave anyone out who pm'd me.

    glad i won you over moncur

    and thanks to everyone giving me advice and tips and help.

    it does help.

Assuming the chosen band could pull a big crowd, of course!
    if you had a big name from south headlining, everyone would roll out of the bars and turn up for their set, no guarantee that these people are going to turn up for the rest of the bands.

    I am a former member of the band Whitnoize, and just want to say that the band no longer exists.Our inflated egos killed us. We did enjoy playing the Big Gig in 2006 and had a great time afterwards. Myself (I was the guitarist numpty with the stoopid long shorts) and the bass player have formed a new group, Imperious, with Aaron Wilson and Danny Tonks and are still practising at the mo. Hope to get out and get some gigs soon

    I do not have faith in you, purely because last year was about your tastes not the publics.

    After all it is a COMMUNITY event.

    The so far line up are to be considered, maybe it should be down to the person with the original BIG GIG name??

    I dont want to put a gala event down all together but I think you should stick to arranging empty drawers!!!

    Is a all ages event, you should remeber that.......

    In all fairness to K Dragon... he did ask what bands the public would like to see.

    Perhaps uppieballad has returned!

    Or it's one of his associates

    I'm fine with 'mediocre' bands, a mediocre weather and having a couple of mediocre drinks. It's always fun
