    Laurieston bar is a great pre gig place. You may even spot some famous people who drink in same pub

    It’s really not the best laid out venue for a heavy metal gig, I’m not sure how smaller people see anything unless they’re right down the front

    Awful sound, no face control (making it that 14 years olds are smuggling drugs to an 18+ event), and a little bit far away. Still, not bad enough to make you miss a gig just because of the venue.

    Acoustics are great but the place feels run down now and it's horrible for visibility if people are taller.

    Worst sounding venue I’ve ever been to. Consistently sounds bad regardless of who’s playing.

    Don't waste your time ordering a bottle of water. Apparently the bar staff aren't allowed to give out plastic bottles.
