Review of Grandmaster Flash

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

Grandmaster Flash needs no introduction. A true master of his craft. Seeing such a legend is a privilege for anyone in my opinion. The venue itself (an old biscuit factory) suited the artist and the atmosphere was great. You really felt like revisiting an underground gig back in the day. Since the Biscuit Factory is a multi-purpose location the waiting times at the bar shall be mentioned. But since the queues well reached towards the dancefloor, you could pretty much dance while you are approaching your beverages. Nice save.

The warm-up DJ needs special applause, Nasty P did a solid 10/10 set getting the crowd ready for the main act.

For such a price and exclusive vibe that the party was offering. It is easy to say that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many. Including myself. A well-seasoned culture vulture. Difficult to find any reason why events like this shouldn't be encouraged. Whenever you see such a unique combination of artists, people, venue, and atmosphere. Go for it and enjoy yourself.

Big up for the organizers for dreaming this night and bringing it to reality. Fantastic!

Review of Cookie Club Presents: Cinthie B2B Telfort & Anna Wall

Overall rating: 1.5 Verified review

DJs Overpaid and underskilled: crap night. Mixing was dire - so many mistakes obvious to anyone with ears. So little joy to be had in the crowd of kids too young to know any better. S**tty venue with no water that you could help yourself too, no flipping loo roll. For £20 a head I feel like they should at least provide the basics of a standard club, I mean if they want to stick with the aesthetic of a warehouse, why not include a few used needles on the floor and go the whole hog? Very light on the Berlin atmosphere, but heavy rip off vibes. Friendliest staff there were the doormen. 2/10 overall, you'll have more fun in Maccy D's in a service station than you will in this pretentious s**thole.

EH6 need to have a more eclectic line up...dominated by white male guitar bands and this festival should be a showcase for variety of the new talent that is out there.

Things were a bit chaotic in the run up to the event, but still great fun and a lot of passion for music on display. Hopefully next year will be a return to the likes of 2017, with Alabama3, Gerry Cinnamon and Big Country. Good to see Kyle Falconer back!

Far too many drunk wee guys making a nuisance of themselves and the place was absolutely baltic with the door being left open on a freezing night. All felt rather rough! The bands were amazing though and made up for the pretty rotten venue and crowd.

Let’s start and say the music 🎵 was great...... it was nice see an older crowd which were enjoying themselves......it was a shame that it wasn’t that busy 😔 now let’s get on to the venue it wasn’t great ❓❓❓I reminded me of the my old Rave days ... it was Cold 🥶 the bar was poorly stocked. The toilets well let’s just say WTF it was like something out of the 1800 s I was looking for the Rats 🐀. I hope they have it again but not at the biscuit factory ‼

What an amazing venue, plenty of space to dance around, the music was fantastic 10/10 to all the DJs that played. The atmosphere was amazing and I didn't feel like the oldest swinger in town.
The only disappointment was the bar management the girls were far to slow at serving drinks resulting in the que being longer than it should have been. apart from that great night x

Love this band, they are amazing! Saw them at Shiiine On a few years ago and so happy they came to Edinburgh. They are not to be missed if you're a Roses fan.
HOWEVER, I was really disappointed to get to the door and hear I could've bought a ticket for four pounds cheaper than I paid via Skiddle. Can you please explain this discrepancy? Why should I bother going through this app to purchase tickets?
