RossP Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Nice wee venue. Bit like playing Henry J Beans back in the day.A bit awkward doing a soundcheck whilst folk are eating their dinner though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim BENCH Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 And thanks very much to you Sam! We've been finding it hard for people to even give us the time of day in glasgow let alone take time to listen to us or even reply to emails and mail shots. Or maybe we're just THAT shit. Anyway thanks for giving us our first Glasgow gig! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ 10 Easy Wishes Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 we played in bar bloc, it was weird to play at and not a great venue to say the least. Perhaps if more people had been there it would have been good!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartmaxwell Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 bloc has always been fine when I have played there although slightly on the small/cramped side. it aint really a venue as such though, more a bar which half heartedly puts on live music.

Kaizen Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 There are plenty venues in Edinburgh, you just usually have to shell out a little. And most of them are actual venues rather than bar/venues. The Hive, Studio 24 and Cabaret Voltaire are all decent venues, if you reckon you can get enough people in to fill them. You could also try Henrys Cellar Bar which is a bit smaller bar/venue kinda place. Hope that was of some use =) There also used to be The Subway in Cowgate that gave you the venue for the night for 50 engineer included, but they got bought over by someone and i dont know what the score is now...x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeanette Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 A 9 o'clock start? That's far to late for me. I'm such a granny... or it's got something to do with my 6.30am get up time and the at least 1 hour journey to work!! Good luck with it though.
