Quote from: sanddunerider on November 08, 2016, 08:02:24 AMWith empty theatres I am surprised also. Lots of other options, The Americana would have been a good one for them.it's to small for them. They need more seating and a bigger stage than what the Americana has.What will be interesting is to see where AYO/ Voices of Glory end up, as Six/ Hughes Brothers will essentially be taking their time slots and splitting them between the two. I can see them at the Americana if they can get someone else to share it with them. Or a couple of the other theaters in town that need something.Hate seeing RFD theater sitting empty.

Wait... Wuh??? Ok, had to drop over to their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SixBros/?fref=tsAnd they have the announcement there announcing the move and the times for next year. In digging through the comments, you can see why.Apparently Mickey Gilley has sold the theater (no surprise there) but it wasn't to the Knudsen's (that's a surprise, as I thought they had a plan in place for them to buy it). And with the new owners coming in, that meant that SIX was out. So they're going back to where they started.I'm honestly shocked. I thought that SIX was in the process of buying the theater from Gilley. I wonder what happened to that plan and what caused it to fall through and go to other new owners instead.
It is a shame about RFD, But that is their owner.. HE doesnt care if it sits empty,,,AYO? maybe they will move to a morning slot at Hughes.. Or maybe morning 2 or 3 days, and afternoon when SIX isnt playing.. We dont know if hughes is going to afternoon slot, OR only 3 nights a week... LOts of vague info out there on this move.... LOL... hopefully answers will come in, inquiring minds want to know....
I really enjoyed the Starlite when Liverpool Legends were there. I thought it was the perfect venue for that show. Are they even around anymore?
Announced Yestarday that AYO will be at starlite theatre,,, LOL. I wondered where they would land after Six moved to Hughes Brotheres,,, Starlite is a nicer Venue anyway,,,

I figured they were going to have to move after the SIX announcement, but couldn't see them leaving. Hopefully it'll be a good spot for them.
