General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Or maybe people aren't seeing as much music because ticket prices are high? It's certainly that way for me.
I (and plenty of people I know) regularly attend live music, with on the door prices that are equivalent to the cost of a few drinks. But equally I've been prices out of seeing some of my favourite acts because they're big enough to demand higher costs so I totally get where you're coming from.
I think what I'm getting at could better be phrased as; people don't want to see small acts much these days.
There's loads of acts like Ed Sheeran, but if you're into Ed, not just music like him, it's going to seem like it's impossible to watch it live, when in actuality there's a lot of gigging musicians who are out there with accessible performances.
