first week of may and we still don’t have any refreshed lineup, oficial electronic new stage announcement, map or boiler room names… this year they want us thirsty
I was at Bruce on Sunday and it's clear from the other comments that my seat choice really was a monumental f**k-up.
I was initially put off by the ticket prices, so after a little investigating, I opted for the restricted view option (£90 a pop!). I'd looked on the viewfrommyseat website and it looked like they'd be ok, and from a being able to see point of view, they were.
However, the observant of you will see the low roof. That completely buggered up the sound, it was far too quiet in that section, I listen to music louder at home. On top of that, anyone showing any signs of having a good time was told to sit down and shut up by the stewards untill it got to the encore.
Bruce and the band were excellent but it felt like we were watching other people enjoy a gig. From all the comments above, it looks like they all were and I'm even more gutted. Having said all that, I don't know if I'd have stretched to the next ticket price so may not have gone at all if it wasn't for the ones we got.
Not so sure on the organisation, if you're going to have set entrances down side streets, put up signs showing people where to go rather than them walking down a road and only finding they can't get in that way and have to double back.
£7.80 a pint.
TLDR: It looked like most people had a great time, I was very disappointed. They should advertise the seats as restricted sound rather than restricted view.
