BUG 31 on sale now to BFI Members - shows on June 14th and 29th

Hello from the BUG Team!

Tickets for the 31st edition of BUG go on sale today to BFI Members.

Adam Buxton, BUG's inimitable host, will be guiding you through the usual selection of awe-inspiring music videos, incredible online discoveries and of course, hilariously insane reactions from the YouTube community. There are 3 chances to catch the show at BFI Southbank: on June 14th at 8.45pm, and then the Director's Cut version on June 29th at 6.30pm and 8.45pm.

The BFI Southbank Box Office is open from 11.30am until 8:30pm, so give them a call on 020 7928 3232 or click here anytime to grab your tickets.

The remaining tickets will go on sale to non-members next Tuesday (8th May) but we'll also let you know about any returns going back on sale nearer to the shows.

I'm sorry. I haven't added this to the gig list yet, have I? I've been a bit busy but I'll sort it in the morning.

There's a nice interview with BUG fave David Wilson here

Adam's doing a Best Of version of BUG in aid of Marie Curie tonight. Tickets are very pricey as per his tweet.

I've just added a few more events the first post of this thread but to recap:

13th July 2012 or 14th July (early evening) Best of BUG at Latitude Festival. Tickets now(Adam tweeted that it was on the 13th but other sources indicate 14th. It's quite likely he'll be performing there more than once.

22nd July 2012 at 19:00 BUG Special at the Cambridge Comedy Festival. Tickets on sale in now!

10th to 12th August 2012 Wilderness Festival. Tickets now No confirmation of day or format. Just reported here. I don't think this is happening.

Adam blogged today and has done a wonderful job of updating his Events section. He mentions an additional BUG Norwich #11 date which is not yet listed at the Playhouse website so I've noted it up in the first post of the gigs thread.

He does not mention the Wilderness Festival and I only ever saw the one mention in the Oxford Mail so I've finally had to concede to deleting that gig! Sorry if anyone found it misleading.

Adam's blog also confirms an exact date and time for his Latitude appearance so I've updated that too.

It's 5:15 to 6:15 pm on Saturday 14th July in the Film tent.

Adam's Latitude set went down well yesterday and there's a review of it here.

According to a tweet from Adam a couple of hours ago. BUG is coming to Manchester and Birmingham in September!

at a guess - the same venue as last time(?) (Zion Arts Centre in Hulme) I have a mate who works there now so will ask if he knows anything
