Not sure about the Sheffield branch but I know that Pizza Express in other cities have live singers/pianists. It's on Division Street.

And there's a Pizza Express in Meadowhall as well, in the Oasis.

No there's actually a Pizza Express, I know cos Dad and I were in there last Friday lunch time, it's the big building that used to be the Rock and Roll Diner or something way back when the Oasis first opened.

Right - going for this in a big way now!

Can anybody help?

Thanks - thats good advice! Not sure where to start! I need a roadie, not very good at lugging a PA around.

Anybody want to be my roadie????

Back to the original post...

I'm running a buskers night in Ecclesfield, bring your backing tracks along and do your show, if you do have your own equipment hopefully a night could be arranged, if not at that venue, then maybe I can sort one... pm me, or add to this post

oooh thats a bit close to the school where i work! can do without singing in front of mu pupils! he he

can you give me some more details? Am i right in thinking i wouldnt need my PA for the buskers night? Just my tracks? How many songs etc? when is it?

ta!

All equipment provided, even backin tracks, but feel free to bring your own

Sounds good - so when is it?

This Wednesday evening

what time? and what pub?

Thanks for the help - I am meant to be somewhere on wed but I might be able to shuffle things...

Wednesday night from 8.30pm The White Bear Ecclesfield
