Peter Hook Interview: "The gig will celebrate Ian at his finest"

Peter Hook & The Light brings an incredibly intimate 200-capacity gig to Manchester in aid of mental health charity, Shout. 


Peter Hook & The Light to play 200-cap gig for charity 

I strongly recommend you go and see Loose Articles at the Star and Garter last night

Review of Loose Articles

Review of 1986 - EP Release show

Not impressed with Skiddle as we had trouble getting into the venue !!!!

Review of Peter Hook & The Light: An Evening of Music & Conversation

Huge confusion about how to buy ballot tickets and whether or not weâd been successful in the ballot. Didnât receive any email after draw date saying whether successful or not, despite checking Inbox, Spam, Skiddle account, etc daily. Received reminders from Skiddle prior to event saying bar codes would be issued at 6pm on day of event, then a QR code arrived at 4:30pm on day of event and wording on Skiddle app (eg. âshare with your friends that youâre goingâ, âa map of nearby accommodation for your eventâ) that seemed to indicate we had a ticket. Husband travelled 60 miles to Manchester to be told the bar code wasnât a successful ticket. There were many other people left outside thinking they also had valid tickets, including a couple who had flown over from France specifically for the event then were told their tickets werenât valid and were sent away. 
Very disappointing and unnecessarily frustrating, not to mention the wasted  time and money involved. 
Iâve no issue with buying ballot tickets for the event to support the SHOUT  charity, but I do have an issue with the lack of clarity from Skiddle as to whether the bar code it sends is an entry one or not. Also received this link to give a review of attending the Peter Hook event that we were turned away from because we were told we hadnât been successful in the draw. 
Good idea Peter Hook to raise money for Shout, poorly executed by Skiddle. 


Great gig but I think there was a lot more than 200 people there and it was extremely hot in the venue
