Though if this band were from round here, rather than 'between Preston and Blackburn', they'd have more correctly called themselves Trouble at t' Mill.

Thinking about it, the band's name is correct. Though round here they would have an extra abridged 't'.

The listing on the Civic's site is wrong.

They aren't called Trouble at Mill.

It should say the band's name, which is Trouble at' Mill.

Perhaps they should be runing Lancashire dialect classes.
