A Rant!

Well said David. I haven't said anything in this thread so far because I don't feel qualified to talk about it anymore, I'm rarely home and then when I am I'm normally so busy I only make it down if it's a Let Airplanes gig or something to do with Motive. But I still think the Brickyard is a pretty great venue. If it was that building in Manchester, say, it would be lauded as a brilliant place - great staff, atmosphere, plenty of space etc. It's just because Carlisle is small that there are any problems, and I think they would all be sorted by a smaller venue from which new acts could graduate to the Brickyard.

That said, I've never been to a club night at the Brickyard and can still not quite see it working, the space is too open. I need to come see for myself.

so if the brickyard is so shit at advertising, how do i manage to notice when a band i fancy is on ? because i see and hear about, they do a good enough jopb for not to big a city as carlisle.
and stars of track and field are a brilliant band and no wonder they get asked back because as they say, they are getting folk through the doors and thats what counts. i have seen them twice and would see them again no problem.
n the brickyard wouldnt be the brickyard if it didnt have its old fucked up seats, its all part of its rustic atmosphere, it fits. i wouldnt wanna sit my arse down on some flash new sofa which is only there becaus dome bloke despises the old ones. and to be honest i never sit, im always against the wall by the radiator near the door out the back just below where someone has aptly wrote 'cock' !
