COVID-19 has resulted in many of the UK’s most hard-working underground touring acts being forced to cancel or reschedule tours – resulting in loss of income, and other financial losses due to non-refundable bookings and other expenses.
Each tour cancellation also represents any number of Tour Managers, Sound & Lighting Engineers, Stage Techs and Drivers left without any income for the foreseeable future.
In response to this, Good As Gold have created ‘The Tours That Never Were‘ – a non-profit fundraiser to benefit independent and underground UK-based bands and crew, and various charities.
They have partnered with Awesome Merchandise and Aled Philips (Deputy Art Director at Kerrang! Magazine) to create a range of products featuring bands and artists who have had to cancel or reschedule shows between March and May 2020.
Support this initiative if you can, to provide economic relief to some of the rad bands that would have been playing for y’all during this shitty lockdown, including Palm Reader
