  1. Hopefully it stays as a music venue but not sure on the rumours to whos buying it.

    Still think theres space for a decent gig venue of its size if someone with the know how and dosh to get the right bands in.

    Dunno how the Rileys thing will effect it or if it was a false truth to get Mama out. Its a steep rent for the place and the rates on Bassment are massive. The Cathouse never had much luck running bars only in the nightclub side.

    With Mama not soundproofing, i think they were on the get out quick when any problems flared considering now all the venues and mama group are going up for sale by hmv

  2. Was having a chat with some people at work and they wanted to go see a band but were put off because the venue was about 10/15 minutes from the main bus station. (about a mile or so!)

    Just wondering if that puts other folk off etc?

    For me if i want to see the band, i'll go to the gig no matter where it is in the city. Some of the best venues i've been too are technically "out of town" and i can never work out what a central venue would be.

    In Glasgow Captains Rest is West End and Barfly/Cathouse on the River which are totally different ends.

    But in Edinburgh everythings around the train station area but he wouldn't consider going to Leith for a gig which is not even that far.

  3. Hi folks,

    wondered if any of you can help me and give me some info (hopefully pics) on studios you practicei n. Looking for somewhere to practice and there doesnt seem to be as huge a selection as down in Glasgow.

    Where do you practice?

    Whats it like (photos pleassse!)?

    Prices? Equipment?

    Staff decent?

    How many rooms they have?

    Where/what to avoid?

    Do you hire from them, what ?

    Whats it not got you want?

    Where/Photo/Price/Avoid is prob most important.

    Thank you :):)

  4. Hopefully this should go better than Glasgow last time... hmm.
