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.

About this blog - contact details.

Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.

Submissions for review

Whilst we appreciate the many emails, texts, messages and other communications we receive requesting album/gig reviews on BSH, regrettably, we are unable to reply to all of them other than those we are able to answer with a positive response.
Similarly, CDs received by post will only be considered if accompanied by sufficient background material.
Finally, bear in mind that this is a jazz-based site when submitting your album.
