Review of Portsmouth 16+ DNB Rave w/ Mozey

My first rave and it was so good

Review of The Devout (A tribute to Depeche Mode)

The Devout were really good, but the venue 'needs work'. To be greeted by 'have you got ID' and initially refused entry was a poor start. The organisers should make it clear that physical ID is required. The irony is that the actual tickets are only sent digitally. Add to that the fact, tickets not actually checked made for a bizarre beginning of our evening.

Review of The Devout (A tribute to Depeche Mode)

Not clear that ID would be needed.

Review of The Devout (A tribute to Depeche Mode)

When we got there we were asked for ID for entry to venue. Around 15-20 of us didn’t have ours on us. We were told we wouldn’t be able to go in without it. There was nothing in the booking email or on the tickets saying ID was required at the venue. We were after a while given permission to go in. They didn’t even check our tickets. Thank god for that because The Devout were amazing and we will definitely be seeing them again.

Review of The Devout (A tribute to Depeche Mode)

The group were completely committed to providing an evening of Depeche Mode and full on high tempo dancing and a real passion for the music. Really impressed with the recreation of Anton Corben's videos as a back drop. They did not disappoint

Review of The Devout (A tribute to Depeche Mode)

Devout brilliant as ever. The venue on the other hand was poor. Very small stage for any music act and restricted the performance. Only cans available and no draft. Very expensive at £5 a can. Staff and security upstairs great but security downstairs a different story. As they had another event upstairs after they locked the door between the floors. If you wanted a breather you could not get back in. Big fire risk having only one way out. Will be giving the moonshine a miss in future. And on top of that one of the band who was DJ got told to get out and stop playing by security. Even though we had the venue for another 45 minutes. Shocking service.

Review of Moonshine Presents: Schak, Portsmouth

No one here, £9 for a Stella can. Completely empty. Went to OED within 20 mins because we wanted to give it a chance.

Review of Concrete Music Presents: Sammy Virji

Sammy was good but it wasn’t clear that he’d only be on for an hour? In a student club

Review of Concrete Music Presents: Sammy Virji

Music was everything I could've asked for, venue setup was great but just very crowded with not much room to get to the bar. Atmosphere was great everyone having a good time.
