You're entitled to your opinion, but I saw them last time and they were ace.

It's £15.40 inc booking fee. It's a Triptych thing, so the pricings their thing.

Friday was my first time seeing the Fall, and it was well worth the wait.

He may not be the most pleasant of characters, but M.E.S. exudes a certain star quality, and his band were right on the nail too - a bass sound to put the fear of God into you.

The Fall were on top form at Fridays gig. MES worked his band up like normal and of course ignored the crowd. The Fall seem to be attracting lots of new young dancing fans and its nice to see them at gigs...

£15.40 seemed a little expensive before the gig but lets face it to look that bad takes lots of money! And its cheaper than HMT and Music Hall shows.

Hear, hear Dave - it was some performance, and yeah the ticket price seemed a wee bit high, but with Uncle John and Whtelock playing too, and the added tension caused by MES's late showing - I'd say it was value for money.

Without having experienced The Fall live until Friday I can't properly comment on Chilli's assetion that things were much better back in the day, but i couldn't help enjoying the gig, and if that's a crime against musical standards then put the cuffs on me now officer, it's a fair cop.
