Still a bit small compared to the Academy's Johnny. | |

It is but Bristol nipped in ahead of South Wales in getting one. The wanted an arena but Cardiff beat them to it. Hopefully this arena thing takes off in Swansea but I am not holding my breath.. | |

I think this wil be the fourth time I have seen them there. We tend to go to the Chinese restaurant round the back before the gig. Trouble is we always get lost trying to get in through the rear of the building. It is a right maze. It is a bit too far to hike all the way round. Especially after trekking to the eatery from the station.
Tend to stand left of stage over by JJ but the view was poor last time. They had dropped the Marshall amps and the new ones blocked the view somewhat. Could not see Dave at all. Gonna try and get there early to catch Mike Peters and try and find a good view with easy access to and from the toilets. No easy task as it looks like sell out again.
Back on topic.....it will be brilliant for the music scene in Swansea although the capacity will be about the same as the Patti. A bit disappointing considering the physical size of the place. I heard somewhere that the Albert Hall could pack in 5k if it was stripped out for a standing capacity. | |

Bristol Academy is a horrible venue IMHO. Unless you are in the mosh pit or at the front on the balconies it is like watching through a letter box. Good boozer opposite for a pre gig pint though. | |

Yes seen that website. There is something similar for the Palace. The poor old Elysium is completely neglected. As an aside I wonder how many similar venues have been allowed to rot in Cardiff.
I sit corrected. The AH has a potential 3000 capacity. Still a decent size.
Problem is though the last updates on the site were 4 years ago. It all went Pete Tong when we lost the City of Culture bid.
Shame as it has the potential to be a top venue. Imagine all the punters coming in on the trains and The Elysium offering a pre gig booze up as a giant Wetherspoons. :-) [Post edited 15 Mar 2016 12:40]

Open air music. Good spot by pump house in marina, also castle gardens would be good area for a band to set up and play. | | | |

Have you tried The Garage at Whites in the Uplands? It’s not a huge place but might be OK for a “smaller” gig. Sorry , not sure of capacity.
The pool bar is having extensive updating with brand new pool tables, and the Terrace on the top floor is a very good cocktail bar.
Get in touch with them and I’m sure they will be able to give you all details about the Garage music venue.

There’s a small arena called the liberty stadium that is in desperate need of both investment and competent management. It has held several high profile gigs including bonnie Tyler, the madness tribute act and max Boyce. | |
