Yorksheather Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Have you seen on gg boards,Laura'sMum has posted that she has been intouch with Bradford Information Centre who say as far as they know Gareth isn't going to be there.She is asking which part of Bradford Council,confirmed it? I thought it hadn't been confirmed officiallyv ?until Snowdrop posted The Gareth Mail ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 I only said what had been said in this thread and that people would need to check exact details before making plans because details had not been confirmed and things change. As far as I can tell The Council have made no announcement about the switching on of the lights - so I'm not sure what's happening. I'd have thought they'd have done so by now, but until they announce it formally we'll not know for sure what's happening. I don't know why they haven't made any formal announcement, or even if it's normal to leave it this late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R@ch G@reths Bird Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Im hoping he is there,A lot of people have made plans. But maybe we shudnt have assumed he would be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 That's where the dilemma lies as if people are going to go they need to make planes. When we've been told by Wendy he's going to be there (albeit unofficially) and The Council tells people they should go ahead and book trains then you can be sure people would complain if they weren't told. But of course there is always the risk that people get things wrong or they change, which is why I said to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Also someone at Pulse Radio,told someone it looked like Gareth was going to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Yes, fingers crossed they are just keeping us waiting - but you can't help but worry that plans have changed. It might not be down to Bradford CC - I wouldn't put it past 19 to be awkward, and if there was an opportunity for Gareth to work with a really good song-writer or producer that week and it clashed - they'd want him to do that instead, and who could blame them?

Yorksheather Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 I'm sure Gareth will have Bradford marked in his diary,he seemd pretty determind to be there.But nothing has been written in stone.I'm thinking Pulse Radio will start advertising once they have Halloween out of the way,but we do know that Gareth isn't headling this year as usual.I hope we don't get someone we'd rather not see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Pongo has posted on ggates that they told her they were changing the format of the thing - so who knows what that means. I thought they might get Girls Aloud in, because they have a single out that week (CIN one too) and Kimberly is local, but they are at some HMV opening in Cardiff that day, so I already thought that was less likely. If The Pulse are doing Halloween type things, then that would justify holding back on the Christmas lights, and if they aren't having the usual concert type thing - then maybe there is less need/desire to advertise it so widely.

R@ch G@reths Bird Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 I cant help but think that maybe they are keeping it away from us for now to stop us from hassling them. But to me,Keeping it away from us just makes us hassle them more,Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Well it still has this on the Pulse site. Bradford Christmas Lights Centenary Square, Bradford Thursday 18th November An evening packed with entertainment to get Bradford in the festive mood. We'll be live in Centenary Square to flick the big switch and get the seasonal glowing going They do have a lot of local things,like someone from the pantomine,can't remember who is on this year.Some very stompy looking local dancers,dressed up Christmassy.Fun and games.They also usually have the winning local rock band from a comp to perform at PITP.Then last year it was Phixx,Cleo and Gareth.It did sound like they were having someone headlineing this year,and it deff wasn't Gareth,then lights switch on then Fireworks. Wendy did say he was deff going to be there,but things can change,but I am hopefull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 What makes you think they're having someone headlining? What have they actually said about it? Because there are so many mixed messages coming through - and if they are doing something different to last year, then we can't rely on what happened last year.

Guest Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 whatever it is i just hope that Gareth will be there. i have booked my train tickets already and it arrived yesterday plus i had my time off from work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 I thought when Janice phoned they said Gareth wasn't headlining this year . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Heather we knew he was not headlining, they made that plain when people phoned them, but they implied that Gareth would be there. We just thought he may sing a x-mas song, but we did not expect him to sing any of his own songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
