The Return of the Wam Show
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2022 5:56 pm
I posted something similar to this about eighteen months ago and believed it would happen . Sadly due the poor conduct and general idiocy of the previous owner of The Wam it was just a pipe dream . Since then that individual has moved on and has no influence or contact with The Wam and things there are going in a different direction .
The best thing about this has been the confirmation that this year there will be a Wam show it will be 1/2 October and based in new venue in Stoke very close the main railway station . Large deposits have been paid and there is a set plan for the 40 rooms that are available for use . Firstly all those who paid for the 2019 show and left their payment with The Wam will be given first refusal on a room . After this those that booked but either asked for a refund or had not paid will be then given a chance . After this if there are any rooms left then it will be announced and first come first served.
The format has returned to the old one of set up on the Saturday and full open day for the show on the Sunday . Ticket sales will be announced and there will be a reduction for advance booking . Due to the current restrictions (which may well change) there will be a limit to the numbers allowed to attend .
I will hopefully have a room and will be using my three way active system with NVA amplification so if anyone decides to go please drop in have a listen and a chat and let me know honestly what you think of the system .
Shows have been very few over the last few years and this show is different no one has anything to sell you and the variety is huge . I think we need to support it and keep it for future years but this will only happen if we can get good support both for the rooms being filled and visitors on the Sunday .
Apologies if this upsets anyone I do know that there are historic issues mainly caused by the previous owner I think things have changed and would love to see anyone off here on the day.
