The most I've ever spent on a single gig. We're in the feuerzone (right at the front) so I'm expecting to lose my eyebrows from the excessive amounts of pyro. Quote
frank_spencer Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Fuck knows how Til Lindemann and the boys don't cook every night. Quote

I would mind, but Nick Cave was £75 a ticket, then a £10.40 "service charge" and a £1.35 "facility charge" total £86.75 I would prefer them to charge me £90 with no seemingly random fees/amounts added on Quote
Spider Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 The new Nick Cave album is off the scale. It's perfect. £90 is steep, vertical, but at least you know you'll get your moneys worth. Quote

The arena is hit and miss on sound quality but better suited to someone like Nick Cave. Rock bands tend to lose their impact in there. At the Bridgewater with an ochestra, he could get £150 a ticket. Imagine how good that would be. Quote

Plus my mate got carried away and bought us coach tickets. So we won't be able to go out in the pop before and after. So arena beer prices it is. Quote
Spider Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 Best sound of any act I’ve seen at the arena was probably Muse. Well suited to Bellamy’s warbling. Bands like Iron Maiden, Foo Fighters always seem to sound mushy for some reason. I’ll tell you who were shit, Kings of Leon. They sounded like they were being PA’d through a fisher price microphone. didnt help that they’re a bit shit to start with. Quote

Kings of Leon stopped being great in my book when they stopped taking drugs and cut their hair. Fannies. Quote

Another band ruined by the arena I saw them on their second album tour at the Apollo, ace Saw them at Manchester Central for their third album, ace Fourth album at the arena was toss and full of folk who look confused when they played anything released before sex on fire Haven't listened to anything they've done since As for nick cave I was mortified when I didn't get tickets for his solo q&a thing at the Bridgewater earlier this year Saw him do his last album tour at the arena, it was good But I also saw him do it at kings theatre, Brooklyn, Google it, was perfect Quote
