Sad to hear that the venerable 8x10 music venue in Baltimore's Federal Hill, will be closing permanently soon. Grateful I got to play at it a handful of times back in the early 1990's, along with seeing a bunch of great shows there as well. Here's some […]

One of Sheffield's best-loved venues has had its future secured, as part of plans to create a "National Trust for music" The Music Venue Trust are looking to raise £1.5 million from fans to acquire the freehold on grassroots culture spaces in Leeds, Newcastle and South Yorkshire.

The future of one of Sheffield’s most celebrated arts venues looks set to be secure for the long-term with the announcement that its city centre site will be acquired by @musicvenuetrust.bsky.social for the benefit of the city.

It wasn't easy seeing bands back then as not many travelled that far west. But I saw what I could. #Redruth #Cornwall #musicvenues
