This included a major Crowdfunder appeal which has so far raised almost £24,500 due to massive support for the Waterloo - and now the MVT has raised additional funds for all the venues and given £10,000 to the Blackpool operation.
Ian said: "I'm delighted by this, it's like an early Christmas present and I can't thank the MVT enough, they do such brilliant work trying to help our music venues.
"But I'd also like to thank all the people who have donated to the appeal, the response has been absolutely incredible.
