hippo girl 1,995 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 It is difficult to park at the Victoria, don't think buses run from bramcote on a Sunday.? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
.... 23 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 When I've been there before I've parked on the street outside. Not found it a problem and maybe this will be the case considering it's a Sunday night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hippo girl 1,995 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Thanks Stu, haven't been to the vic for a while and yes it wasn't a Sunday.....I know a lot of the locals were complaining, but there is always the station car park.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moz 164 Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thanks for coming to the Victoria last night. I hope you enjoyed it even though the sound was not so good there and there was no room for you to show off your dancing skills, maybe next time. By the way, if anyone has any suggestions of songs to add to our repertoire, please feel free. We would like to play what our audience wants to hear. If you're interested, we have a website and a page on Facebook. Note: Life of a Rock Star - 1) on stage, did you notice me trip over a wire and fall into a radiator - good job we don't have any immediate gigs as I've done some damage to my hand and shoulder; 2) after we had loaded my car with all the equipment, It wouldn't start. I had to wait for 2 hours, getting more & more cold, before the man from the AA came & got me started. It seemed to take me ages to thaw out when I got home. I wonder if Rihanna has this problem?

denshaw 2,871 Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Harvest Pale was £2.80. Contemporary its £3.10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
.... 23 Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Just as a comparison, Harvest Pale is £2.60 in Castle Rock pub, The Lincolnshire Poacher. In the vicinity I guess but The Vic is certainly a little expensive for some drinks. Maurice, thanks for popping back on here and to the band for a good night. Sorry to hear of your accident and problems getting home on what was a cold night. As a suggestion I think one or two Small Faces numbers sound like a good addition to your set, Watch Gonna Do About It, All or Nothing, Sha la la le, that kid of thing (as opposed to the more often heard (Itchycoo park and Lazy Sunday) I's put money on you to do a good, beaty Otis number too such as I Can't Turn You Loose.

piggy and babs 544 Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 thats a good price for bear i suposebut as i dont drink beer i would not have noticed but when you think that its less than 20 pounds for a large bottle they getting about 200 per cent mark up i would think 100 per cent would be fairer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
