The Wedding Present Tickets and Dates

Rated 5 out of 5 by RobinWho from LEGENDARY !!! Excellent gig, usual banter with the crowd, usual brilliant songs. This was in a very small venue (100-ish), I assume it was a festival warm up ? V. good value. Long may they reign !!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Davy69 from Superb gig by The Wedding Present! The Wedding Present 30 years on are still one of the best live bands going. No frills, just great songs, with a superb sound and delivery. Talking with David Gedge, beforehand, put the icing on a fab cake! Thanks to O2 staff for their help, as well. A brilliant night! :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by Market square andy from Great night out Another superb gig the weddoes have never done a bad one singer David wedge was on top form as usual really enjoyed it and so did the rest of the crowd money well spent

Rated 4 out of 5 by Lloyd67 from Great Band and Venue The Craufurd Arms had a quiz on, the pizza girl knocked over my friends pint and no aircon...but an atmospheric venue back to the 70,s, great. Band had an interesting line up with two females who though note perfect could have enjoyed it a bit more..David was great as always. Sound poor to start but got it sorted.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bugsybanana from Great Gig Great gig, great band, great venue. Ferrets forever and don't talk.

Rated 5 out of 5 by CazzyVintage from Outstanding Event! I last saw the Wedding Present in the late 1980s, and I have to save they were as good as if not better some thirty years on. The atmosphere was amazing. Dave Gedge had so much energy and his guitar playing was brilliant to watch. A superb night out!

Rated 5 out of 5 by David IT from The Gift that keeps on giving... Hearing George Best played in its entirety like this after 30 years tonight was magical. The musicianship surpassed the original and David Gedge just a wonderful star - every inch the pop star I wrote to when I was a teenager first time around (oh, and received a reply!) What an evening - that made a fading MAMIL very, very happy indeed.

Rated 2 out of 5 by threeboysmum from Most anticipated event of a few years. I had looked forward to seeing The Wedding Present so much and came away so deflated. I think the sound mix had been set for Wembley not a small venue such as that. The music was loud, which you expect at a gig but this was loud to the point of total distortion. The vocals were just lost somewhere in the building. I started in the middle of the room and in a desparate attempt to enjoy the evening I tried standing near the back under the balcony canopy, the sound there was slightly better however we were missing out on the atmosphere. I then moved right to the front, which is always best in a small venue but it was painful. I heard my two favourite songs from there but could only recognise what was playing after years of familiarity on vinyl and cd. In order to salvage my respect and love for this band I decided to leave rather than suffer more. On my way out I went to the loo which is at the back of the building and up two flights of stairs. Sat on the toilet I could every word perfectly, not quite what I paid the ticket price for. The band worked hard and deserved better, my years of devotion and those in the crowd I spoke to meant we all deserved better. I'm not sure if the fault lies with the venue, the engineer or the equpiment available but it should be sorted. In 35 years of going to see bands all around the country in big, small and outdoor locations this is only the second time I have had such a bad experience. As a 51 year old female my comments won't be of value to anyone since I'm not likely to fall into a target demographic.
