Acoustic Affinity at The Rose

by Fluff E Clouds on May.12, 2011, under Miscellany

Acoustic Affinity are playing at  The Rose in Peterborough (formerly The Fountain/Glass Onion) this Saturday, 14th, from 9.00pm. Some people are eating there first (great Afro-Carribean) but it’s a pub too so people can turn up for 9.00 to catch the show.

Apparently this venue has now abandoned hiring loud bands and is trying them out, along with a couple of other acoustic outfits. If it works out, it will be a good place for other acoustic musos to get gigs. But the owner has to be convinced that acoustic attracts an audience – in other words, going to hear them would do some other musicians a lot of good. There’s a good chance this venue will just stop hiring music.
