    Im on a pricey contract like 60 per month, might be related?
    I did not apply for pre sale ticket ages ago as somebody mentioned.
    Tickets were first come first served, seemed to be there for an hour at least

    Silly question re parking, I purchased the parking along with the tickets, and while I've downloaded tickets to my phone for admission before I've never seen the parking attendants have anything other than the printed ticket slips, which they grab from you with the speed of light to get you in to the car park. I presume they have scanners for the parking rather than me printing it?

    Cracker of a gig

    Deep, dark n dirty - apocalyptic blues for the digital age

    Plenty of yakkers but their insidious drone fitted the anti-digtal diatribe.

    Looks like it's standing downstairs.

    Sound was better further back but still pretty bad.

    Sound was good upstairs. Bass was too low for black milk but on other songs my chest was vibrating. It was great, an attack on the senses.
    By the way, Daddy G?? has the easiest job in town. Unless I'm mistaken from where I was I counted two songs he was on stage for. As I say, I'm open for correction on that

    yakkers quite annoyed me but shifted a bit away and found a decent spot where I couldn't hear them....then a bloody fight kicked off just as teardrop started playing.


    Inertia creeps was my favourite.


    really enjoyed the gig overall

    I wonder how many freebies they gave away?

    Under normal circumstances, at gigs these days, there's too many people who'd be better off in the pub, as they just want to chat to their pals..

    Add in a load of people who are just there cos they're on a freebie, at a concert for an album released when many of them possibly weren't even born, and it sounds like a nightmare for genuine fans..

    reminded me of a really drunk lad with his girlfriend who was trying to get to the jacks with him in tow.

    while holding two pints to anyone who made eye contact he would go
    "heeore heeore have youse ever heard angel loive??"

    To which his missus would go

    " stop it, you're a moron and you're upsetting these people"

    to which he would reply with:

    "yewwwwwwwwwww rrr me aaaangeeeeellll" .

    Was kinda funny but they would not leave people alone, must've heard that conversation three times before they got far enough away until I couldn't hear them any more.
