We have a late National Album Day arrival... Siouxsie and the Banshees' The Rapture, 'Of all the Banshees albums, their final The Rapture is their most wildly schizophrenic and arguably their most ambitious. Half of the album was produced by Velvet Underground alumnus and art rock pioneer John Cale, while the band took control of the rest. The 11th and final studio album from Siouxsie and the Banshees'

The Royal British Legion Hall in Louth means a lot to us having hosted many live music events there over the years including many local bands via Louth Later as well as This Is The Kit, Morning Star, Hyperclean, Peter Bruntnell and many more.

The Louth Royal British Legion Hall has been condemned by RBL HQ and will most likely be put up for sale soon. This is at a time when so many venues are being lost around the UK.
There are a group of local people who want to see the hall kept in use for and by the local community and used as an arts and community venue.
Visit the Facebook page Your Hall to find out more and to fill in the questionnaire to show your support for retaining the hall as a community asset and/or to share your ideas.
