hamster Posted 4 May, 2009 Share Posted 4 May, 2009 Simon, when are tickets going on sale? I would officially like to reserve 6 please. And please can you clarify the age restriction, ie what is the limit and if kids only go to the day bit do they still need a full price ticket? I know you are busy, but I may be having to plan around the Div 2 play off final which is on the same day, plus organising babysitters for the evening.

Matthew Le Tissier Posted 8 May, 2009 Share Posted 8 May, 2009 My brother is playing and he is a pompey fan. See we are not all bad! a few of my mates who have a well know local based band who all happen to be saints fans !! emailed various organisers and offered their services to help raise money and the organisers didnt even bother to email them back, well one did who said he would pass the email on to the the guy that organising the bands !! taht was the last of it !! to not even bother to reply is just rude. fair enough they are not coldplay but they have played the joiners,brook and wedgewood rooms many times. Then to read they have pompey fans playing just makes me giggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambosa75 Posted 8 May, 2009 Share Posted 8 May, 2009 I'm not one to grumble as the lineup does look strong but I also recommended my mates band The Reason who have headlined at venues up and down the country including the Cavern Club in Liverpool and havent heard anything about them being on the bill and I reckon they are better than the majority of bands already on the bill.

SimonRichards Posted 8 May, 2009 Share Posted 8 May, 2009 probebly didnt get a reply as they are not mates with the organisers Not True. We have been very busy these last few weeks. I'm sorry you didn't get a reply. Who did you email? Who are the band offering their services? As you nay of read, due to the massive demand of bands wanting to pay at Saints Aid, we have made it an all weekend event. We are hopeful of securing some music venues on the Friday, Sunday and Monday nights. Saturday will be at SMS on the Itchen concourse and maybe another room with the stadium. Ticket prices will be around the £15 mark. This ticket will enable you to attend EVERY Saints Aid event in every venue over the weekend for FREE. People without a ticket will have to pay on the door at the other venues. SMS is ticket only and we are expecting the demand to be high. Ticks should be on sale at the begining of next week. All door money will go to Saints Aid. Were still not sure on age limits. I'll get back to you asap. There will be a Saints Aid family funday on the Saturday 23rd in the Chapel car park. This is purely a family event. Unfortunately we will not be able to play live music (Bands) in the car park as license only allows 499 people there at one time.

SimonRichards Posted 9 May, 2009 Share Posted 9 May, 2009 Will their still be live music during the day on the Saturday at St marys????? Of course there will. We are using the Itchen concourse. The capacity is only 750 though. This will be in conjunction with Saints Aid Family fun day. (More details to follow) We have been in talks for 2 weeks with Saints event management team and music Production managers. We tried to see if we could use the pitch. We had some bigger bands lined up for this. Capacity would of gone up to 15,000 and with the bands we had lined up for a bigger show, we though we would sell a minimum of 12K. A massive stage, lighting, sound and even pitch covers and transport for them were all organizers. However after everything looking good we came across a stumbling block in the way of a 21 day planning order (******). This is part of the reason that we have held back on the ticket release .date So, because we have 30+ bands wanting to pledge their support to Saints, we are going to hold the event over 3 days and maybe 5 venues.

trousers Posted 14 May, 2009 Share Posted 14 May, 2009 Where will the money go? "All revenue generated will go directly to Southampton Football Club, to help stave of liquidation, for a few more weeks. Should the club be bought or it's circumstances change before the night of the concert, it is our intention to use all proceeds raised to purchase season tickets and distribute them to schools, hospitals and childrens charities within the area." http://www.saints-aid.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 14 May, 2009 Share Posted 14 May, 2009 The money goes to the club! How stupid can you get! The administrator will continue with his dutch auction until every last penny is gone, therefore any money you give to the club delays the takeover. Count me out.
