Hello people. 

If you're intending to come to this gig can we ask that you buy yourself a ticket from We Got Tickets in advance? please, please?

We sell most of our tickets this way and only ever sell a very small percentage on the door. Currently advance ticket sales have been really poor. So poor in fact that we may have to consider cancelling, which obviously we do not want to do. 

So please, if you're intending to come, the link is below.

If our advance ticket sales for this gig don't significantly increase by this Friday, we are reluctantly going to have to cancel.

If you are intending coming, please buy your tickets now!

Thomas is a one-off, an Irish traveller with a unique singing style handed down through  his family for generations, and a vast collection of songs he has gathered to prevent them from disappearing.

He is also a thoroughly lovely guy who has long campaigned for the rights of travellers, and whose singing is gaining increased international recognition.

There have been two TV documentaries made about him.

He also has a great sense of humour, and is very entertaining as well as being such a good singer!

[Sue]

We are delighted to say that we have sold enough tickets now, so this gig will be going ahead! 

[Sue]

This is a rare opportunity to see an Irish traveller singer with a unique singing style!

Advance tickets will come offline tomorrow afternoon to enable us to print off the ticket list and go to The Ivy House to set up, but tickets will also  be available on the door tomorrow night, Friday 31 May.
