[-pogo-]

I like eelus - he's more affordable.

Has anyone been to this on a saturday?

Should be going this weekend but can envisage a bit of a queue. Just wondering how manic the queue is and how early I should be getting there.

I'm hearing that people are now queuing for up to 4 hours.

I'd suggest getting there at around 8am, and then you're guaranteed to queue for only around 2 hours.

Was thinking about getting there about 7 and queueing for an hour anyway.

it doesn't open til 10am (unless they've changed it).

I live in Bristol but am not in the slightest bit interested in Banksy.

I know people who have gone and have said it was good tho.

a friend has gone to the exhibition this arvo (wednesdays are late nights, open till 8pm), joined the queue at around 4:15, and got in after just 50 minutes queuing.

We went first thing this morning, really didnt expect the 3 hour q. Worth it in the end tho, really enjoyed it.

What do you think the queueing times would be for this monday? (the last day + a bank holiday )

My flight gets in at 8.30 so will probably be there about 9.00/9.30

could be shorter than normal, or could be stupidly longer as it's the last day - it's very hard to guess at.

I went yesteday at 1.30 pm and queued for just under an hour and a half, would probably be longer on a bank holiday though. Enjoyed the exhibition and thought it was well worth the wait. Don't forget to look all around the musuem though as there are many Banksy works scattered around all sections of the musuem.

a mate went this morning. He joined the queue at 9:30, and got in at 12:15.

I know f**k all about Banksy other than crap written in newspapers.

Can someone explain why it isn't slightly strange going to see his work in a museum?

On the previous page to this thread, I mentioned an artist called Eelus.

He released a new print today (below) for £210, edition of 120 and it sold out on his website in ten minutes. Three appeared on ebay within the hour with a $1000 price tag!!

I've been waiting for this release for ages and I managed to bag one. It was more stressful that Glasto ticket day!

Banksy has a new print release here: http://www.picturesonwalls.com/ for those that are interested.

Due to the obvious demand, you need to register to buy (of which there will be a lottery draw on Monday) - £450 a print - good luck if you want one.

Anyway, to cut to the chase - If anyone is interested in helping me out to get one, I'll get you a christmas gift ... (I'm not sure what the rules are about offering cash - PM me ). You'll only need to register an email address - nothing difficult.
