Obviously struggling to sell. Am I right in thinking that the club don't make anything on tickets sold anyway and just make money on food and refreshments? |

The question is, will the club make enough on this concert to cover the cost of repairing the pitch?

i Would of thought due to it being the uni that organised it. and making profits from it from venue hire.. that it would be the uni that would pay for the repairs to the pitch. i maybe wrong tho... makes sense uni foot the bill though |
Re: UB40 "2 for 1" 24 hour sale on now!
So glad I bought two back when they first come out......

[size=1][i]Posted via mobile theme[/i][/size][/QUOTE] No, I think they're around the 6,500 mark though. So we should be looking at making £50k profit IMO from food and drink sales. Also, were building a portfolio. More concerts we put on, the more chance of future concerts and hopefully bigger names. Olly Murs may have a more significant attendance but I doubt many of them will be old enough to drink... |

The wording was as follows - the the works to the pitch 'Were factored in when negotiating the terms'. This is a club organised event and not the university. |
They've done the same for V festival £180 a ticket to now find they are doing 2 for 1.. not a happy bunny

😂😂😂😂😂 big draw? Like UB40 level 42 might have been a reasonable crowd puller in their day but not now just nostalgic old fans, kids won't even of heard of them. [size=1][i]Posted via mobile theme[/i][/size] |
Re: UB40 "2 for 1" 24 hour sale on now!
Its more like UB20 too, as its only half of the original line-up....the other half are still performing too, under the same name, and a bitter argument continues....might have been more of a ticket seller if they'd put both on the same bill, followed by a punch-up.

I'd be amazed if the amount made from food etc would be £50,000 , not possible surely .

Depends if Mark King gets the slap bass out :44: |
Re: UB40 "2 for 1" 24 hour sale on now!
If 5000 spend a £10(which they won't) take out food/drink costs and staff wages we would make about £20000-£22000.
I'm taking the mrs so the way she drinks its going to cost me a £100 so I'll make up for some of the teetotal fans. [size=1][i]Posted via mobile theme[/i][/size] |
Re: UB40 "2 for 1" 24 hour sale on now!
At the Stereophonics gig I spent far more on ale then I did on my ticket.
Even if people aren't drinking alcohol, they're still going to be inside for a few hours so will probably buy a soft drink or two and perhaps something to eat. I'd be surprised if our mark up for food and soft drinks isn't at least 200% and for alcohol (bottles) 300%. |

Re: UB40 "2 for 1" 24 hour sale on now!
The Stereophonics concert was jammed pack so our party were pretty sober. With less expected for UB40 the queues for the bars should be quicker.
