Reviews
A decent enough venue with efficient and friendly security and bar staff. Sound quality is a bit muddy sometimes, but overall not bad. Plenty of room downstairs we had seated tickets for balcony but just stayed downstairs anyway. Close enough to walk from city centre just across the bridge at Jamaica Street. Bar prices as expected for music venues £14 for two pints.
Had a brilliant time there for the recent W.A.S.P. concert.nAcoustics were excellent, staff, etc. did their job professionally and courteously.nnThe venue still retains that old school aesthetic, but is well maintained.nnOverall, a great experience that I'm looking forward to repeating.
Pretty good sound quality and viewing options. Don't forget about the bar located down the front at the side. If you like lager/IPA they have Brooklyn on tap which is nice. A bit overpriced in my view at £6.95 and £7.50 a pint. Staff were lovely, particularly the security staff who were good craic
Venue itself is decent. Plenty of staff to check the tickets twice and give you a frisk on entering - first time that's happened at a Half Man Half Biscuit gig!nFree water at the bar and cups of water handed out to those at the frontnSound was goodnLoads of loos too so no waiting round !nSadly, however, the ticketing is appalling. Several of us had issues. I had to contact the venue the day before and, to be fair, it was resolved quickly.
I thoroughly enjoyed the gig, the atmosphere, the venue, even though I was seated.nnI did find the security for the gig Kneecap over the top, and that clothing brought along, and merchandise purchased outside the gig was confiscated meaning a long wait to get in, missing the support act.
