This weekend, 135 music venues across England which are at imminent risk of collapse, will be the first to receive a share of the government's £1.57bn Culture Recovery Fund.
Mr Dowden said:"Of course what really makes a venue is a mosh pit of people jumping up and down - and we're some way away from that…We realise normal business models can't operate at the moment and it's so important that we preserve this really important part of our rich cultural heritage." "While we're really grateful that we were able to get one grant... it's a really unusual situation to be in... we didn't receive any feedback from it. We can only speculate that it's because the Rossi Bar is only 18 months old so perhaps it doesn't have the same clout in terms of its output and our accounts.
At The Horn in St Albans, which has played host to artists ranging from Paul Young to Friendly Fires, owner Adrian Bell is grateful for the grant but knows it's only a short-term solution.
Heaven sakes this is SupergrassHQ they deserve a pay check like everyone else. This is not the end of the world check the facts it might happen to be political.
I am so in!
