Bebop Spoken There

Paul Edis: "One of the regulars at The Gala today called me a 'turncoat' and another a 'deserter' - that's a very northern way of displaying affection in response to the news that I'm leaving the area. 'They're vicious down there mind you'. " - (Twitter January24, 2020)

The Sage is number 2 Concert Venue.

LondonJazz lists the the UK's top 100 concert venues (compiled by PRS).
The Sage, Gateshead, is up there at number 2, with Newcastle's 02 Academy number 8 (there are three 02 venues in the top 8), Customs House, South Shields, is 59 and Darlington Arts Centre is in at 80 which is ironic as it is soon to close owing to lack of funding.
London's South Bank Centre tops the list.
Talking about The Sage, don't miss Dionne Warwick there tomorrow night - not least because the support act is Alexander Stewart backed by the Alex Webb Trio.
