A Saints Aid ticket will enable you to go to any Saints Aid event over the weekend.

The King Alfred have anounced their line up for Friday 22nd as part of saints Aid. Also to be announced in the next day or so, the line up at Louisiannas ( formerly jumping jaks) on friday the 22nd, this will be a rock/metal night going on untill 2/3 in the morning. On Monday we have bar quarter(formely hotshots) with the full artfull dodger line up headlining the event, and other DJs. Oceanas are kindly donating ALL door and ticket sales to Saints Aid.

We have put the date back already. If we did put it back 21 days this would of fell on the same day the pitch being reseeded.

I believe Glynn & Colin are working on that now. I'll publish What band are playing at what venue as soon as I know.

Not really. We were in talks with other (non saints related) Bands but didn't peruse them when we knew the pitch was a no go!

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.

They haven't contacted me Paul. Try Lee or Glynn. they are the ones sorting out the bands. Have 'open room' got a myspace?

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.

Stuart didn't leave centreprise for the reasons were thinking of.

Here some Youtube videos of some of the bands performing at Saints Aid Here is Perfect Alibi performing , & at Southampton Guildhall last year The REBS were the opening act at V Festival last year

We are gonna have 2 stages. One on the concourse and one outside in the carpark. Or, one on the pitch and one in the concourse. Watch this space!

Sorry Paul. I had a call this afternoon, and Lucy wont be able to make it. She will however still model the Saints Aid t-shirts we are having made.

Local bands offering their services for a local cause and willing to do so for FREE. Have a listened to their myspace pages? The Rebs have a massive following and are mentioned in NME at 'the next big band' They have played at V last year. Perfect Alibi are simply stunning. They are A Pink Floyd tribute act who equally match the talents and efforts as the Australian Pink Floyd band... PLEASE check out their site. We have an act reforming and gonna play at Saints Aid! Most of you know who this maybe!

We could auction/raffle it off at Saints Aid?

They would of loved to of helped, but they are abroad recording.

I have contacted Pete Devereux from the Artful Dodger. Still waiting for a response. I know they split up years ago, but I'm sure Pete has some contacts in the business.
