Apologies for being so blunt but it came up again over here http://www.peoplesrepublicofcork.com/~peoplesr/forums/showthread.php?t=58145
One factor for me in deciding whether or not to go to a gig is the venue. The idea of paying €20 to take my chances with the crap shoot that is a gig in The Savoy is a bit too much of a gamble for my liking.
I've been to quite few gigs in The Savoy and have come away disappointed more times than not. In terms of size the venue is perfect for larger acts but for whatever reason the acoustics for live gigs is very often terrible. Can we not get a petition going or get someone who knows about these things make a suggestion as to what can be done?
