biggrin The link did have The Rats originally, which struck me as a bit odd. Seems the proof reader has realised and corrected to The Ruts.

Explains why RAM never listed it.

Saves another stupid o'clock performance Sun night/Mon morning as well.

Pep,

I think Minehead is going ahead but it's for the Garry/Simon version of the band that's been touring for last few years. Bob and Pete don't feature in that band but this is probably a commitment from before the reunion.

It's further complicated by fact they're now billed for Fri 26th, not Sun 28th, as part of the start of the Butlin's weekend bill, not the end.

In short, I believe the Garry/Simon band will be there on the Friday night, and definitely worth seeing.

See http://www.rockartistmanagement.com/page/boomtown_rats for a bit of the history on that band.

Regards,

suss

Not taking place

Regarding the Boomtown Rats Roberts & Crowe gigs, the band has been advised to withdraw from them so to avoid any possible confusion with The Boomtown Rats gigs. They are sorry if this means some people will be disappointed, but it is unavoidable.
