Harvey incorrect
It’s not a LN tour – they sell locally to promoters like they always have
We get some dates like everyone else

Harvey – no idea what you are talking about?
It’s not a LN tour
We bought dates like all other promoters and were given the deal terms from mgt we did not make any offers?
You know how it works they have historic promoters they outline the deal terms and everyone accepts?

Michael my angst is not directed to LN or yourself.
My comment was made after Bob defended Bruce.
I do not agree with this version having argued with Barry Bell at the time after being sent the LN budget and the subsequent decision made which was “take the money”
I have no interest this time round.
Best

Not sure what that means?
We have nothing to do with budgets etc
We have been local promoter in UK since I lived there and did some dates?
We were given the terms for the dates like every other market
Your note to Bob was very clear you implied somehow LN drive up the ticket prices by offering more than the net? Not true at all
