There are so many great new bands hitting the touring circuit, but currently their SatNavs might exclude Bournemouth for one reason or another. We have the venues and a big population... we just have to ask. So, who would you like to see play Bournemouth and where? List the venue and the name of the Artist (preferably alive, and realistic... the Stones won't do the iBar).
I'll kick things off...
