Review of Boogie By The Sea
What a rip off. OK there were two really good acts, and lots of gear, but £12.00 for some jerky and you could not even bring any water with you, so you had to pay extortionate prices for crappy cheap lager, cider or bottled water. £8.00 for a hot dog. Security was overly tight for a small Gig like this.

Review of Boogie By The Sea
The music was superb of course, and the actual venue was fine. But the crowd management and security was very poorly organised. There was a two hour window between gates open and final entry. It was so poorly managed that we had an hours queue just to get to security. The event ran at least an hour behind schedule, with the result that the first act was only on stage for three songs to try to catch up. I've been going to concerts and festivals for decades, and this was as bad as it gets.

Review of Boogie By The Sea
Great bands that I danced to in my younger years.
The venue was a good size for the crowd allowing some space to sit.. or dance.
Prices at the venue were on par with other similar events.
Nice mix of people having a great time.

Review of Boogie By The Sea
The security to get in seemed way over the top it took forever to get in and I was one of the first!
Because of this the event was very late starting, so Bony Mâs set which should have been a hour, they only played 3 songs! And they were the group I went to see!
The prince of the drinks at the bar was insane £5.75 for a c**e sized can of beer come onâ¦. And no draught beer
The food was very limited and why would we need 3 different stalls all selling jerk chicken ð
On a plus note the staff were all very friendly and the atmosphere was good

Review of Boogie By The Sea
Great venue, if the weather is fine. Excellent line up and sound was good. Drinks were a bit overpriced especially the bottled water and you can't take anything in with you, which is a pity.
