Bilge Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 If you're not bothered about the support acts, what time do you usually turn up for gigs? I know it says 'doors at 7:30' or whatever but no fool goes that early. Is there some unwritten logic governing it? 9:00pm seems usually about right, but I've fallen foul of early starts occasionally and missed part of the main act. Main bands at Boardwalk seem to be 10:00pm, Leadmill 9:00pm for example, but maybe it's not foolproof. I'd like to think there was an underlying formula I could rely on but 'about 9:00pm' is the best I've come up with so far. Ringing the venue doesn't always help either.

miniminch Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Originally posted by jake Its seems the older you are - the later you turn up... That's true. Nowadays, I tend to turn up four hours after the gig is over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super_pie Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Originally posted by Bilge but no fool goes that early. I always seem to be early for gig's; especially at the ledmill. Nothing to do for the first few hours except drink. I am a fool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I REALLY hated the support, i'd prob get there about an hour after opening, just to be on the safe side hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modesty Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Yeah, I always have the best intentions to see the support acts but always think I can get served in this pub, I'll just have another. Fall for it every time, always arrive after 9pm. I'd just like to nominate Super-Pie for the best avatar award. Don't know who the guy is but he's really digging that cowbell:thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.blaze Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Being young I usually turn up as early as possible to start throwing as much booze down my neck as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
