    this is my favourite so far out of the 2000+ venues. It's big, but the floor is slanted upwards toward the back just right when the chairs are cleared away so that you can see from pretty much anywhere. I saw Mogwai, who must be difficult to get right sound-wise at the best of times, and the music was crystal clear and gloriously loud (like rattling your rib-cage levels).

    I guess the only thing that stops me giving it 5 stars is that it's not as intimate and full of character as somewhere like The Luminaire. Otherwise full marks for everything else.
