SpeedwayTShirts Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) Been trying to remember the Cardiff Entertainment since it started as I haven't missed one. With next year being the 10th Birthday then it's 9 main acts to remember, ignoring the interval bits which from memory have included Tony Christie, Chas N Dave and Javine I think? Anyone with a good memory feel free to chip in Here's my stab at it 2001 Edwyn Star 2002 Suzie Quattro 2003 Blues Brothers 2004 Tony Hadley 2005 Abba Tribute 2006 Bonnie Tyler 2007 X Factor - Brenda, Ray etc 2008 Berlinda Carsile 2009 Queen Tribute Any forecasts for next year my guess is Jason Donovan Edited July 6, 2009 by Superbart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marron Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 'Entertainment' is usually rubbish and that bloke who comes on and sings on his own all of the time (think his first name is Paul) is about as rubbish as the lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzieQ Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Have to say that my favorite was Tony Hadley! I loved Spandau Ballet and he has such a strong and powerful voice! Would hope that for next years 10th Anniversary they will get someone big for the event though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Belinda Carlisle was best so far, agree that they need someone special for 10th year, real top name, announce it 2-3 weeks in advance and I'm sure they'll sell a couple more thousand tickets which in turn would pay for the better entertainment.... How about Stereophonics, get lots of Welsh going (is that a good thing??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornishman Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Have to say that my favorite was Tony Hadley! I loved Spandau Ballet and he has such a strong and powerful voice! I agree. I dont remember Spandau Ballet first time round, probably because i wasnt alive , but he has been the best so far by a long way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) I think Belinda Carlisle was best so far Would have been nice if she was singing live though ..... It was quite comical when she missed her cue and forgot to start miming. Edited July 7, 2009 by Shadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazza Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Would have been nice if she was singing live though ..... It was quite comical when she missed her cue and forgot to start miming. That was pretty funny I think that the entertainment should be someone like Lostprophets etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciderman Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Tom Jones, he should help fill the Stadium!! Failing that Shirley Bassey!! Wouldnt get in the Speedway for the Local,s come on BSG you know it would work. Or could we go for the Manic Street Preachers, now they would bring an audience of brand new young fans aho had never seen speedway and the Millenium would be a sell out.

ciderman Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Just wondering, whats capacity crowd with the track in??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I think they should book a big name act but only release the name of the artist on the local radio stations on the day I would say if could get Stereophonics or Tom Jones you could add 20,000 on the gate i remember when Radio 1 arranged a secret gig in Leeds with Oasis only announced the location and artist on the day and tehy had 25,000 turn up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
