    Great venue and sound. And nobody trying to push us outside the minute the gig was over.
    Just need to pay attention to which band members go on the poster. Stick to living members only. The band will appreciate it more.

    Amazing lime up, amazing venue, sound was fabulous, atmosphere was electric. Only downside was the poorly organised beers huts.
