And the HMV venues like the Ritz in Manchester will be losing their "HMV" status and returning back to as they were,
"We would like to reassure all of our customers that this venue was acquired by MAMA and Company in December 2012 and is no longer a part of the HMV Group. We are in the process of removing the "HMV" name from the venue and from all of our marketing materials.
However, in the meantime please be assured that the recent announcements in relation to HMV do not affect this venue or any events taking place here. If you have bought a ticket from HMV Tickets and haven't received it please contact us at
ritzboxoffice@hmvritz.com."
