 Not sure of your exact circumstance Mike but the Godiava Festival in Coventry offers these facilities:http://www.godivafestival.com/godiva/info/1/information/7/disabled_facilities

Could this be a tour to promote new music? We live in hope and wishful thinking

Looking good already for next year.

We've neglected The Rats somewhat this year with getting married etc. but we'll definitely be doing some gigs next year. Dublin looks favourite at the moment, lets hope some additional dates are added.

Really enjoyed reading the reports and looking at the pics from this year's dates, looks like everyone had an excellent time!

Can't wait for next year and meeting all our great Rats friends again.

Mel & Michelle (M&M)

 Some of the press releases say the gig is to celebrate the 40th anniverstiy of the release of the first single Looking After No !.Any excuse I don't mind! I'd like to think that a lot of the people who went to leopardstown would have been impressed enough to head to the Olympia or Belfast in March 2017.

I'm surprised these gigs were announced so soon after Leopardstown. Anyway soon the Rats can take the next six months off, and come back refreshed,No point in trying to do too much, or wearing themselves out. On stage they all seem to be really enjoying themselves and the adoration of the crowds.

If they are doing gigs in Ireland it's almost c ertain that they will do Uk dates also. Who knows they may even have some new songs by then.smile

I got mine easily. Someone else had problems, tried for hours, but managed it. Try again. There are still tickets.
