Chubby Brown event banned by Swansea Council 13:01 - Oct 29 with 4229 views | Jackfath | I've seen Chubby years ago at the Grand theatre. I wasn't going to go in April. However the council have made a huge statement here banning him. Censoring what the tax payer can/cant see in our City. Clearly we are no longer able to make decisions for ourselves. A very sad day for our city. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/whats-on/theatre-news/roy-chubby-brown-gig-pulled- | |

Chubby Brown event banned by Swansea Council on 13:11 - Oct 29 with 2341 views | jackal | It may just be hearsay, but I was told that Tom Jones was going to perform here when he first started his career. But the council banned him because of his sexual singing style. He vowed never to appear here. Can anyone confirm or deny? | | | |
Chubby Brown event banned by Swansea Council on 13:19 - Oct 29 with 2317 views | Jackfath | As adults we should be able to make our own choices/decisions, surely? By doing this they've opened the floodgates for every minority group to scrutinise the decisions about them booking shows/acts into the theatre. What a dreadful time we live in. | |

I'm going to go with Swansea Council in the first place (although him only selling 50 tickets was probably a factor) and then the gammorati on pages such as https://www.facebook.com/SwanseaOnline1/ . Plenty to keep all of us entertained here. Which is more than anyone can say about Chubby Brown. I did meet him once in a chippy in Cleethorpes before a Swans game at Grimsby about 15 years ago. Nice chap, punching several classes above his weight. | |

I don't know many comedians these days that don't use the "c" word and use paedophilic references for a cheap laugh......where's the council's values there? | | | |

The tenant has changed that's what. Chubby performs there, the tenants move out, a valuable financial contribution is lost to the city. | |

Correct. Have they rented internal space to other agencies for the same amount of time? | |

There's been plenty over that time that have never complained, so it must be someone pretty new, as nobody complained about Jimmy Carr, Jim Davidson etc. | |
