In search of Sunken Treasure

So, after a stressful time of constant emailing and begging, I'm proud to announce that Red Rum's Sunken Treasure UK tour is a go. Unfortunately Wales is a no-go for this tour as promoters were either not interested or just couldn't book it.

This was a surprisingly difficult tour to book, despite Red Rum's rise in profile following their UK tour with Alestorm last year. However, it should be an interesting tour and I'm happy to have managed to snag the band for a Bridlington show as well. Scotland - Glasgow to be exact - was a difficult one to score for the band but I persevered and succeeded in the end. And perseverance is an important thing when it comes to booking tours as I found out with the Aonia/Alwaid/Lost Effect UK tour that will be taking place next month.

If you've not heard Red Rum before, just listen to their brilliant cover of "They're Taking The Hobbits To Isengard".
Now, I'll go back to pretending to book bands for Valkyrian Festival.
