I’m going to Fred again tonight. how strict is the o2 academy Brixton bag policy? They messaged saying only one bag that is smaller than a4, but I’m at work today and have a small rucksack, but bigger than A4. Will they actually turn me away? I can’t make any alt arrangements.. 50/50: turn people away from some gigs, other gigs they arent bothered. Its such a SHIT policy, especially when they have cloakrooms. There is a sweetshop a little further down the road offering a paid storage space. ( tenner i think?) if worse comes to worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strict in my experience - and when I was there for Hot Chip this year they were using a kebab shop round the corner as an overflow cloakroom!!

Al2006 Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Thanks everyone for the advice on Brixton Academy bag policy.. I ended up not risking it and using stasher to find a place to store my small rucksack! Still seems a bit of an insane policy as they do have a cloakroom, but my god that was a HUGE queue for that anyway. Fred again was incredible, amazing vibes - feels like every song is a HIT.

Would be £40 well spent tbh. Best show of 2022 ahead of Elton John, AM, Pearl Jam, Metallica, National, Tame Impala, etc, etc for me.

Glad to hear it all went well in the end - your spot on with the vibes. Not sure if its mostly the hype behind him but it really does feel like every song is a hit live even though they just aren't at all on spotify will be interesting to see if come next summer the momentum dies out so much that it effects the crowd, as thats really what makes his show good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember saying after seeing them at Slam Dunk a few years ago that I'd happily pay £50 to see them again. They've only got better since then and they are incredible at their own concerts. £40 is a steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were saying it will take a lot to keep them from their families, no mega tours anymore, fewer better paid gigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
