Two Pigs

May 12, 2009 > Promoters

A town of this size can’t lay claim to the kind of numbers to support businesses that cater solely for metalheads or punks or emos or indie kids but in that weakness the Pigs draws its greatest strength. Bigger cities cultivate pointless rivalries between the alternative subcultures but towns like ours force them together and the Pigs acts as the perfect sanctuary from hangar caverns stuffed with Ben Shermans and the Basshunted and the atmosphere reflects the tolerant and mixed demographic within the nooks and crannies of a profoundly unfashionable building. The Two Pigs is Cheltenham’s most prolific live music venue. Take a trip down and show them, the bands and the Pigs itself, your support and gratitude because the place you live would be a lot worse off without them.
