Sex Pistols and Frank Carter to join forces for Bush Hall fundraiser
Sex Pistols and Frank Carter have announced shows at Bush Hall to raise funds for the venue, as they join forces for the first time to perform Never Mind The Bollocks in full.
In 2023, Bush Hall saw a 24.5% decrease in live music bookings. Running a Grassroots venue in the UK right now is harder than ever, with GMVs currently closing at a rate of two per week (MVT 2023 annual report), 0.5% profits across the sector and 38% of remaining venues reporting a loss of earnings.
“We’re doing a benefit for Bush Hall with the famous Frank Carter. We’re going to be playing Pistols numbers cause they need support and they need the money. We thought it would be a great way to stop it going under. This is my local venue. I grew up in Shepherd’s Bush and I still live round here. It would be a real shame to see it disappear and we want to keep it going," says Paul Cook.
Tickets will go on sale from 5 June at 10am via livenation.co.uk.
