Brilliant. That'll be a mix of good mainland artists, particularly on a DIY/smaller scale, that won't bother and the ones that have an audience worth travelling for will likely raise ticket/merch costs. Also will most certainly have a knock on effect for UK bands as tour support for overseas bands both here and abroad (networking and favours are a big part of band success).

Brilliant, just brilliant. Or are we now anti-EU music and taking back control of our gig spaces too?

ADDITIONAL EDIT:

It says Tier 5 visas will be needed.

£244 a pop, likely per person. Being in a smaller (or even fairly known) touring band is already a "lucky to break even" situation so I'd be surprised if many bands bother. Another fantastic success of excluding the UK from the wider world.

Which provides an opening for three British bands. I hear that Cheap Heat are very good.

The problem with CH (or any band I've ever been in) is booking us unfortunately means having to put up with me.

Do love it when the right wingers on here downvote stuff because they're triggered snowflakes but don't reply or add a rebuttal because they know they've f*cked up and won't admit it.

I was standing having a slash in The Black Horse last Saturday, and I noticed a Cheap Heat sticker on the cistern. Was that you?

The idea of self-deprecating humour is someone’s already made the joke. So the follow up isn’t really needed and comes across as rather petty/snidey.

Bands and musicians come to the UK from countries outside the EU all the time without a problem. Stop wetting the bed.

I don't know what bikerdelic is but can't you just get The Ozric Tentacles and be done with it?
