“Attended the Gurriers gig. The venue is only a very short walk from Piccadilly but found out when I got there you can also access it very quickly from the Mayfield Depot road too which is where the queue line was lined up towards. The queue was incredibly slow I'm afraid. Missed the first support but could obviously hear them as it's an open venue under a motorway. Tickets were being checked via old fashioned clipboard so maybe the ticket scanners were not operating? Its my first visit and will give benefit of doubt, it's primarily a skate park after all. Once in the venue was fantastic. Good range of drinks with some of the best staff too, never had to queue as service was really fast. Bundobust provided catering and was just as fresh as in the restaurant. The sound in the venue is brilliant. I couldn't hear any traffic and it's a nice atmosphere. The floor is obviously a day to day skate park.. under 18s sliding down ramps were in their element. Older people nervously navigating steep ramps and mosh pit kerbs. If the venue puts on more gigs (please!) then worth investing in some temp flooring to protect the skate park and create a flatter viewing area. Portaloos were a bit dark and urinals were across the road so has it's quirks. The Gurriers were amazing and the venue does have a great enclosed feel. Overall a brilliant experience.”
