Manchester M E N - Utter crap. to high and big and as a result the sound is shite.
Manchester Central - Miles better, stil a big auld place and you feel like your waiting for a train to arrive but the sound was spot on; standing only too

Yeah, likewise; we had a few pints in the Afternoon round Brum and headed to the pub the meet was arranged for but it was utter chaos in there so we fired off to the venue to see some of the Holloways. Who turned out to be very good indeed.

Seen them play Brum for the past 3 years now and enjoyed it both times at the acadamy, but probably was getting a bit sick of the whole x mas thing, but knew i had to see them at the Acadamy, and am so glad i did, what a great night! I don't see how it could be better than that anywhere.

I was in high spirits after the gig, went into scruffys which was good fun when they played 3 pogues songs then the ceol castle for the brummies on here till 4am.

woops, I meant it was good at the NIA, but twice was enough there. Think i'll be at the academy again next year!

Am just watching some clips of it now on youtube.

No offence, but as band will tell you, Glasgow Barrowlands was THE VENUE to see the BHOYS And I wish they would return instead of Carling Academy

Well with respect the band are seeing it from a different perspective, they have intimated that this years "gig" was Belfast, personally i preferred the Birmingham gig, i've never seen in the Barrowlands but have in the Glasgow academy and i've gotta say Birmingham academy is the venue of those currently doing the rounds in the UK, but as is the case with these things it is only my personal view and i have to agree i'd love to see them at Barrowlands from what i've herd it's a top venue, the wright size to see the band , maybe next year
