discodown Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 To be fair to plug the drinks prices are very reasonable and the barstaff are usually pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 im surprised you say that, thru most sell out gigs, we find due to people standing at the bar, most people dont try to get to it....we have loads of staff on the bars....3 per till normally. did you also know, you can go round into neutral (relief bar) and there is never a q in there?!? Well I can only say what I experienced when I was trying to get served there was no one just standing at the bar there where just loads of people trying to get served it took me about 10 to 15 mins to get my drinks each time and the same for my friends. No I didnt know you can go to neutral but why would I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 well i can only apologise powerage. there are signs saying that there is a relief bar in neutral - its easily miss them on a big gig thou. your post has made us think of some interesting ideas to tell people about the relief bar....so thankyou. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boutiquechoc Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Saw one or two good gigs there in the newer big room but that old bit which used to be capitol needs to have it's system replaced as it's ****e! And the layout is rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WYEXILE Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 The old Zero room is the best room!!!! As for the sound quality, it depends what you're playing and where you're stood. I guess the layout of the room would be a sound engineers nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit the problems at the bar did put me off your venue but I shall be happy to visit again as you seem to have a positive attitude:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clouded Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I've been to quite a few gigs there, it's alright some days, but i found Seasick Steve to be pretty awful, seemed way over capacity to be honest, left after about half an hour because it got too claustrophobic. I'm not the type of person to leave a gig without good reason but i just couldn't have stayed there. Same thing happened at Patti Smith too.

green Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 hey clouded, both patti smith & seasick were both sold to capacity. both gigs actually ended under capacity by some 30 + tickets as people who had tix didnt turn up. (often the case bizarrely enough on gigs!) we were asked by the tour managers on both gigs not to turn the air con on as both shows are quite quiet.....we obviously cant turn the air con off the whole show, but we try to limit it. we cant win here really, as ive had someone complain it was too cold at seasick...!?! they were admittedly stood underneath the air con...
