SAVE THE PIGEONHOLE

I was rather fortunate enough to be asked to play at The Pigeonhole’s launch early last year and was struck by the sincerity and passion of the owners to the arts/music scene in Singapore. Over the course of time, in my various capacities as music journo, band manager & S-ROCK fan, I’ve had many occasions to visit The Pigeonhole and have always felt at home there, almost as if this was a place put together by and for local arts/music scene lovers. Sadly, as is often the case in our inflationary times, The Pigeonhole is in danger of closing down unless its owners are able to raise funds to cover the rental costs and have set up a page at Indiegogo for that purpose. Please visit http://www.indiegogo.com/thepigeonhole, and kindly contribute to this worthy cause if you are so moved. Thank you!
