Save Our Pubs and Clubs!

We live in an era where hand written letters are a rarity! It is considered normal by most to get a loan to obtain big purchases rather than save and we are getting increasingly dependent on texts as well as Facebook and other social networking websites to keep in touch with our friends and loved ones.

The result of this means we are increasingly becoming isolated from each other and the sense of community we once had is slowly eroding. The pub and club industry has made our headlines over recent years as our ‘locals’ suffer at the hands of the smoking ban and increases in alcohol prices. With supermarket giants selling alcohol at such low prices its understandable why so many people now choose to socialise at home as the media constantly drills home the effects of the recession.

But here is a special Ameritz message to you… Forget the recession, forget your back in work on Monday, forget the kids, the dog, the ironing or what ever else is making you stay in. Take a warm jacket should you wish to smoke outside, even a Slanket, if that’s what floats your boat! Get glammed up or dress down and show some support for your local pub or working mans club!

For the customers whom we have had the privilege to have one on one encounters with, we would like to congratulate you as we are constantly amazed by your passion.  This is about more then singing, it’s about our sense of community and heritage. Something the ‘Ameritz Renegades’ are really fighting for. To help the cause, we have decided from now we will post a discussion bulletin entitled ‘Gigs’ on the Ameritz Facebook page. What we would like you guys to do is write down any gigs you are doing or know of as well as a time and place, so others who may be in the area can check in see what’s happening, and go!
