July 10th - Strawberry Fields?

SmytherJones were supposed to be playing Strawberry Fields in central Glasgow on 10th July, but no-one turned up and we drove in and stood outside for absolutely no reason. We late discovered that the venue has gone into liquidation and had been closed all week.  Why oh why do promoters treat bands with such contempt when if it wasn't for us they'd be flipping burgers in MacDonalds?
