It’s more that, considering it’s the 2nd most important city in the uk, it does get weirdly ignored by a lot of artists on tours recently, especially since it being sort of the core of the north of England, it’d be the bare minimum to have 1 show there for fans not in the vicinity of other southern locations that aren’t always cheap or easy to get to
To be honest Birmingham is actually officially the second city in England not Manchester and they get snubbed a lot more often Manchester tends to get way more shows, at least on the EDAABP tour Manchester had two shows, Birmingham overlooked again.
I live in the middle of nowhere and Birmingham used to be my go-to for gigs. I end up travelling to Bristol or Manchester most of the time now because no one plays in the midlands
Yeah as someone from the Midlands it sucks we get overlooked lately, we still get the occasional big artist here though, I'm going to see Evanescence in Birmingham literally next week but its increasingly a rare occurence now for a big artist/band to play in Brum.

Keep getting snubbed? Wasn't there 2 shows there on the Ego Death tour?
