Live music, gigs, and concerts discussion.
Saw Geordie Greep again last night at New Century Hall in Manchester. Somehow never been the venue before but it's absolutely stunning. Great gig too, played for over two hours non stop with lots of extended improv jam sessions between songs. He also ate a paper airplane that landed on stage...- Martin

The Smiler: time to turn the music off
I definitely think the appeal is how over the top obnoxious it is. Something something TikTok generation something something old man yells at cloud. I think on some level it also just shows their own lack of confidence in the ride, almost as if they don't want you to be able to hear yourself...- Martin

Chessington World of Adventures Resort
Quick question, at the end of last season I got given this after Fury went down, it never reopened, so can it be used this season? It doesn't have a date or anything on it- Martin

Food & Beverage: The Aramark Era begins
The thing is it's not even "becoming trendy" it has been for a really long time, Merlin are just incredibly slow to notice trends, like how they're always late with their midway gimmicks and how they only started doing "streetfood" at all like a year or two ago- Martin

What are you listening to?
A lot of great, culturally significant albums turn 10 years old this year, it's almost become a meme or something. But none as good or significant or freaking me out that it's been 10 years as the one turning 10 today. A line in the sand piece of art From...- Martin

Will it? Or will local residents be priced out or have their homes bought out from under them, but at least they'll be able to get a minimum wage job in the new mega mega megastore, until the Jim Reaper makes them redundant so they can sign another jobber to loan back out after two seasons- Martin

Wonder how many of these park big bosses upset about having to pay staff a bit more have considered paying themselves a bit less to make up for it? Not one I bet- Martin

Oakwood Discussion
Felt in 2016 the end was nigh so in a way I'm happy it lasted this long. At the time I was well aware it could be my only ever visit, but as it limped on it was always a case of "maybe next summer" over and over and now there won't be a next summer. ******. Won't pretend I rated Megafobia as...- Martin
