I've dealt with it.

Move along peeps.

I think it is quite worrying the amount of tickets that have been sold

You would have to feel sorry for OK if this turns out to be a bit of a let down

Thank you Bullseye,I won't be seeking a ban for Joe,he might just be having a bad day

It was an awful bill IMO so I'm not surprised it's a damp squib so far.

I quite like the line up

What does that say about me

We would have probably gone to the concert (4tickets) if it didn't clash with the rugby. But we'll be in Manchester for both days of rugby, as rugby takes priority.

Putting the concert on then would usually mean that it would need to be marketed outwith the core Bulls support as they will be the ones more concerned with the game.

But all the early marketing seems to have been targeted at the bulls fans, only in the last 2-3weeks have I begun to see more general marketing, presumably as realisation begins to set in that there's a game on.

In previous Magic weekends, it's not like the Bulls took 10K to Manchetser though, is it? I know many of those who don't attend watch the telly, but many people now have video recorders, so could do both, and the target isn't just the season pass holders but of course their families and friends.

Very true FA.

I got the impression quite early on that the club always thought the potential concert goers weren't [inecessarily[/i going to be the rugby fans, though, pretty obviously, there is always going to be some crossover.

Anyway, it seems to me that some people actually almost [iwant[/i it to be a failure, for reasons I find hard to understand, maybe so they can get some bragging rights how they always knew it would be, etc. I have no time for that.

The Club should be commended for even attempting this commercial venture.
It may fail or be a modest success or a major one: but whatever it will have been tried.

It is a first for us and as such the success (or otherwise) is unknown at the moment and there will be teething problems that need to be learned and addressed if further events are to be scheduled

There is a possibility that this event is being staged with lower level artists to assure promoters of Odsal's organisational capability to put on headline acts.

Hope it turns out to be a success and do it more often, be good to see some big name artists there soon, fleetwood mac,U2,black sabbath,steps

Good point, hadn't thought of that.

Surely we've already got more of them than most?

Maybe go for One Direction,good bradford lad in that global superstar group

Maybe 2015. Their 2014 world tour was just announced so we've just missed out.

Mind you, whatever you think of them, now they [iwould[/i pull in a crowd. (Just not me).

FA how do you know their 2014 tour has already been announced,are you a secret directioner

Should have tried to get the bands off the Big Reunion to come over. That would have got quite a few more people in.

Probably would have got a lot more in if the pitch and terrace were £15-20, the stand was £20-25 and the Coral Stand was £25-30.

£32.50 to stand on the pitch atm!

I initially thought that a live entertainment event in the middle of a conurbation of 1.5M people (where few events of the ilk are available) would be a well attended.

It appears now that little, if any, advertising or promotional activities have been made outside of the Bull's own web site towards the potential customers.

Why is this? Are we bereft of the most basic marketing expertise or the budget to employ a professional firm to do it.

Perhaps there is a plan to advertise heavily next week. If not then I fear the worst.

You can't miss the announcement, it's been on all the news/entertainment sites.

Just saw this on your site. Quite liked Belinda Carlisle but has anyone looked at the stadium layout for this. It seems odd having the stage where it is as people in the coral stand will hardly be able to see anything www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/shop/product/22/

I can see what you allude to but seeing from anywhere in the Coral Stand you can see the pop stand OK.
See?

How on earth do you work that out? Plus, that stand is the hospitality bit, it doesn't have many seats outside. It would be ludicrous to arrange things so a stage somehow faced that way, and thus away from the vast majority of the crowd.

Like they'll still be around in 2015.



Wouldn't mind seeing Belinda Carlisle myself. Quite tidy as I remember.

People who are in the Coral will have there own area in front of the stage.
There will be the VIP area in front of the stage, then the people on the pitch.
