Sadly I'm away in West Wales this Saturday. Hope the gig goes well and I
look forward to trying out the Fleece again soon.

Jules
Following this discussion thread I had a meeting with the relevant people
at The Fleece this afternoon. Hopefully some of your concerns have been
addressed. I have put you +1 on the guest list for Friday. I'm more than
happy to meet you on the night to talk about this in more detail.
...and if anyone else starts getting ideas about deliberately complaining
so you can get a free ticket... FORGET IT!

Quality is never automatic but a result of painful mistakes, and great
diligence in particular in listening to complaints or being alert to
errors.
I was about to write serious leter of complaint to the Fleece but as you
were recomending a gig in a venue that wasnt yet quite perfect I thought I
would address it to the fans who in my opinion might have more influence
etc etc.
A good sound engineer would help or perhaps a longer soundcheck after the
room filled or didnt fill. Perhaps the next gig will be fine. I can hear
Rita in The Plough or the Junction which have fine sound but it would be
embarrassing to me if I couldnt hear my favorite bands in their own venue,
and upsetting if my freinds and lovers refused to accompany me because
noise level is actually painful.
I hope attendees enjoy the next gig.

Nice one Jules! A public slagging no-less...
We're trying really hard to get the Fleece back on it's feet. A good crowd
on Friday is crucial. I take on board all your points and we will do our
best to address them. I would have preferred it if you had voiced your
concerns to me privately via the email address advertised on our website.
Comments like "I wouldn't bother" addressed to a few hundred Blue
Aeroplanes fans who would normally be quite interested in a gig like this
are hardly going to help us.
Hope to see you on Friday
Cheers

If the sound levels were at the painfull level of last weeks gig I wouldnt
bother.
Ritas wonderful songs were entirely muffled by excess bass from Johns kit
which is hardly what they strived for. The bands before and after were so
loud as to be painful and almost certainly in contravention of Health &
Safety legislation. I listened to the first band from outside the toilets
and the final band from outside in the street. I dont know if the sound
engineer made a slip in both level and microphone set up, but it needs
addressing or even training.
I went to several perfectly good gigs recently (Prom Bar, Blue Lagoon even
Seven Stars) where you could hear every word and not risk significant
further deafness and still feel the pulse of the music.

Hi everyone
Just a little nudge to maybe get some of you down to The Fleece on
Friday?
The Mekons + Gerard Starkie + Rita Lynch + The Smokestack Shakers.
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=137018899653343&index=1
All the Aeroplanes will be there. John Langley is drumming for both
Rita and Gerard Starkie. Starkie's band also includes former Aeros
bassist Joe Allen and current guitarist Loki Lillistone. John also
used to drum for The Mekons so it's all a bit incestuous really!
In other news we are planning a massive Fleece launch night with The
Blue Aeroplanes headlining, VIP bar, local celebs, loads of press,
even a new single on vinyl! Full details to follow in the next few
days...
Cheers
Chris
