Fosse Boy Posted 24 September 2009 Share Posted 24 September 2009 I saw a facebook group advertising this but thought it was either an optimstic campaign group or a hoax. Great news if true though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Posted 24 September 2009 Share Posted 24 September 2009 Yes it's reopening but nothing to do with Andy the original guy as he's working on Lock 42 with us (Stayfree). They're having rehearsal rooms too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lillehamring Posted 24 September 2009 Share Posted 24 September 2009 Yes it's reopening but nothing to do with Andy the original guy as he's working on Lock 42 with us (Stayfree).They're having rehearsal rooms too. hadn't seen anything about lock42, but heard rumours on here, looks really promising... can't imagine the council have supported it either, well done to all... and if the charlotte is coming back, i just hope they put the wall back and make it a pub/venue again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 25 September 2009 Share Posted 25 September 2009 It's been put together by 3 guys that are leasing it from the new owners and hope to put on local bands. They're relying on a lot of voluntary help and recently put out a call for people to go along and help clean the place up. Merc reports: Charlotte set to re-open - http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news...il/article.html Jersey Budd to play on opening night - http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news...il/article.html Call to help with clean up - http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news...il/article.html There's also a group of guys hoping continue with the Phoenix - http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news...il/article.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 25 September 2009 Share Posted 25 September 2009 Libs works at Stayfree? =OI was practicing there when you were still in primary school. Ha, I went in quite a lot back then still just to go on the computaz. It's on Frog Island now if you're not aware. I'm not technically employed. My Uncle owns it and I'm just helping out at the mo, hopefully get a proper j00b there eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough if you're into that. He's hardly 'bad', just seems pretty middle o' the road in my opinion. Nothing new like. That and he just seems a bit of a cockend whenever he's talking to the crowd.
