The council is forcing The Commons - our city's primary All Ages live music venue -to shut down. This isn't the first time this has happened...The Loft...Drone...perfectly safe drug and alcohol free DIY spaces being torn from our scene's grasp.

We propose the council provide a replacement solution, a new all ages live music venue for Boys Don't Cry and Lostlight Bookings to run drug and alcohol free All Ages shows on a regular basis.

The council needs to supply us with a venue and permission to do the shows, and we can do the rest.

GET INVOLVED! SHARE THIS AROUND! THE MORE SIGNATURES THE BETTER! We need to make sure the council know how important live music is to the youth of Newcastle.
