'It's the last thing we wanted to do'

Steve Harris

Available for over a year

"It's the last thing we wanted to do". The words of the founder of Mr Kyps in Poole. The popular music venue is to close after 17 years. It's final gig will be on Saturday 9th June. Founder and current owner of the venue, Mark 'Kyp' Kyprianou, spoke to Steve Harris on Breakfast in Dorset. Mark told Steve that the 'mathematics of staying open' was one of the many reasons they're having to close - but that he wants to see the brand continue in the area.
