Rockgig will be there to see Wishbone Ash record their new live CD on October 13th

Wishbone Ash
Wishbone Ash, like most rock bands,  have released live albums from various venues around the world, but unlike most, their latest is to be recorded in Clitheroe, Lancashire and Rockgig will be there to witness it!

Writing on his blog back in July, Andy Powell said During the summer rehearsals for our Japan dates we had cause to visit an amazing new venue called THE GRAND in the unlikely town of Clitheroe, Lancashire, UK. Situated quite close to our rehearsal space, we’d heard rumour of it through our promoters, the Gig Cartel and so we called by for a visit. What a place! Raised bar, coffee shop and internet facility, the venue features a full recording studio in the basement and on the top level a full video recording set up. A state of the art PA system is all linked in making this venue one of the most up to date facilities I’ve ever seen ANYWHERE. Millions have been spent converting this former cinema - turned music showcase venue situated in the high street, into one of BRITAIN'S BEST live music showcase / recording facilities.


Without any hesitation, we accepted the venue’s invitation to play there on October 13th and at the same time, we decided to produce a LIVE CD recording which we hope to have MIXED THE NEXT DAY, printed, packaged and available on subsequent dates (WITHIN DAYS, hopefully) and most certainly for THE Wishbone Ash fan convention, 'ASHCON', taking place once more at the Winding Wheel in Chesterfield, UK on November 6th. We’d like to invite YOU, our FANS and FRIENDS, to join us for what promises to be a great evening where we’ll feature some lesser heard Wishbone songs in concert. But here’s the thing, if you wish to be part of this SPECIAL LIVE RECORDING, tickets are limited.
The Grand is set out with 350 standing places at the front and 50 seated places in the raised, rear bar section. Standing tickets (£14.50) may be purchased here. Seated tickets (£17.50) are available by contacting the box office on 01200 421599.
