Possible Manics gig in Clwb Ifor Bach (Cardiff) ??
 

A poster with “forever delayed 31/03/22” has popped up outside Clwb. Despite being on this forum for years and years I can’t figure out how to post the picture!
They are around for the bbc music festival for that conversation in the tramshed.
Would be huge if true!

Lifted from the other thread. Check Clwb's twitter and website, nothing for that date so it's all very odd.

Didn’t see it discussed in another thread. Apologies for creating a new one.
I may or may not be able to say this but I was sent a photo of the posters by someone who knows I love the manics and who may or may not work at Clwb and told me to be quiet about it. So who knows what’s up!

Are @Manics to play a secret show at @ClwbIforBach during the @BBC6Music Festival?

Well if it's not the Manics I'm suing for stealing our logo :p

I'd previously rubbished the idea that this was anything to do with MSP, however this article now makes me wonder.

The font and general design isn't very 'them' though is it?

Without the 6Music cancellation thing, my guess would be that some indie band is releasing an MP3 that day, and that's the name of the song.

It's just gone legit! https://www.bbc.co.uk/backstage/6mus...ival/thursday/

Beat me to it!

Well feck all chances of getting tickets for this so hope you Welsh folk enjoy it.

Edit: it's an hour set so we all know what that means....

Oscar Wilde said that there are only two tragedies in life; not getting tickets to a one off MSP show, and getting tickets (and seeing the setlist).

Oh, that doesn't even mean actual fans will get in.

I am still bitter over the Blackwood Miner's Institute gig over a decade ago. And I live 10 minutes from Blackwood.

Don’t be bitter, the atmosphere was dreadful

Same, I was playing skittles in Llanbradach that night and still wish I'd attempted to chance my arm or at least beg the door staff for mercy
