  1. Have you heard of Deadletter ? Off to watch them tonight in Bristol but sold out (small venue). had a fair bit of 6 music play . I think if you like Yard Act (as do I), you would like these guys. Check out top 5 tunes on Spotify for a flavour , no full album yet in other newish music tips , have also been getting into a band called Sprints , who I believe have previously supported Yard Act on tour. Playing thekla next April and I think they will be epic inside the boat
  2. I really enjoyed Andor. Preferred the slower arc than crazy lightsaber battles every single week. ahsoka been good so far too. Just watched Ep 7 so only one more to go. What’s this Baylan skoll fella up to? Keeping his cards close to his chest it seems
  3. Any chance Brighton come sniffing last min with the likely £100m of caicedo sale proceeds
  4. Morning all. Thinking of taking my 5 year old down to get a shirt tomorrow from club shop. Can anyone who has bought / seen the junior kits comment on whether quality is ok and/or it has the weird massive collar that some of the adult ones appear to have on pics? probably gonna have to bite bullet and get one either way as he’s filled his star chart up and been asking for one for ages. Hoping it will at least look ok though after dropping circa £40 on it
  5. Went to Noah’s in the week. Very nice grub for all 4 diners , starters and mains I had been a bit surprised as I expected there to be a posh cod and chips for about £15 , then loads of much more expensive dishes beyond that as it was the cod and chips was about £18, but most of the rest of mains weren’t any more than £25. So wasnt quite the two tier menu I had expected
  6. Hello all in previous years we used to get £10 store credit on each adult season ticket. has this been done away with? I guess so as can’t see any mention on the season ticket page of the website. looking to buy son a junior kit soon and I as wondering if I could get £10 knocked off price if I waited for season ticket to arrive cheers in advance
  7. Scheduling in a iplayer evening of War on Drugs, Phoenix, Queens of Stone Age this eve ! missed them all due to clashes
  8. Managed to find a route in on Friday , trader ticket allocation that was going spare walked onto back of pyramid field just as foos started which was a bit of a moment as didn’t think I would be going this year and all came together at last min Highlights were Elton , Cat Stevens (incredible voice), Guns and Roses (even if Axl can’t get all the notes anymore), Shame, my first ever visit to see Casseteboy/dj rubbish in glade also watched Royal Blood, Arctics, murder capital, Lizzo, Rick astley, Blondie, lil Nas X and a little bit of henge in shangri la on Sunday before my legs told me it was home time . Enjoyed all also had a good laugh in a bar called ‘hop and liquor’ post headliner on a couple of nights. Just banging out some great 80s/90s/noughties tunes and good vibes in there spent way more time on pyramid than normal this year watching ‘heritage’ acts, so looking forward to checking out all the stuff I missed on the other stages now on iplayer. Got a long list going already
  9. Have a great time all , will be watching on the telly
  10. I imagine AM will likely still play. Prob ducking this one so they are back on form for Friday if not surely it will be Jarvis time to shine as a stand in again either that or another 2hrs of Dave grohl prob ha
  11. Hello all. I will be trying to get tickets for myself and two mates tomorrow in the last chance saloon 9am resale. It’s 4 people per application , so we will only need to get through once. They have also removed the need to make payment , you just register the persons details and a payment link is sent to those individuals direct latterly. if anybody on here might be awake and willing to help me out let me know here and I will private message you the registrationdetails. got a few people trying already but I think it’s going to a be a pure numbers game: they will likely sell out quickly so prob all done by 9:15 ish anyway
  12. Are the kits on sale in store from 9am today? I might go and have a look in a minute as walking by nothing I can see on the online store doh! - just re read the coms and looks like 10am in store today , before becoming available on may 1st online
  13. They pitch it as a selection of our signature/best dishes from across the money cynic in me suggests you may be correct though ha
  14. Sorry I have mixed up the terms. chefs menu , was basically letting the chef pick a selection of dishes off the menu. Chefs picks rather than you pick yourself its not a chefs table thing where you sit there and watch them cook it / get a walk through it’s just a menu choice, or you can pick your own selection ala carte instead
  15. Yeah was a bit frustrating. I am a bit fussier than my wife so whereas she was happy to go chefs table without knowledge , I was hoping to get a clearer steer on which of the (many different) main menu dishes were included , before committing to the £80pp price. plus there was plenty of dishes on main menu we could have pieced together ourselves ala carte for a similar value if it might have been more to our / my preference I reckon we were just a bit unlucky with the service on the night maybe , and sure it will come good. Of the few times we had been to pacos and the old Casa Mia the service and attentiveness has always been brilliant. Even if you were paying a bit of a premium and it might need to be saved for special occasions , at least it did feel pretty special. im sure it will come good , and it definitely doesn’t look as pricy now as the menus they were doing prior to closing Casa Mia at the general . The menu setup is a bit closer to pacos in style which I liked , just a bit annoyed with the lack of transaparency regarding chefs menu options Plus don’t get me started on the £13 beer again ha, that one did seem pretty unforgivable
  16. Went here the other day and was pretty disappointed. a series of small gripes rather than one shocker. granted we went in with high expectations , off the back of previous excellent experiences at pacos / Casa Mia (westbury - years back), and other bits the chef has been involved in. service wasn’t brilliant (sometimes left waiting for orders for a while), had chefs menu in end but they wouldn’t tell us what was on it before ordering which was a bit annoying (pretty sure they knew and could have told us). Most of courses were nice but we didn’t love many of them. was a nice meal but we didn’t feel it justified the high cost. also I asked for a beer on arrival before switching on to the wine. There was none on menu but they said they had a couple of choices off menu. Ordered one of them which was a Peroni variant of some kind. When the bill came … £13!!! (For a 500ml bottle circa 5-6% alc). some of the wine was quite reasonably priced, but I feel nobody should ever be served a £13 beer without being warned of its cost ha
  17. I was in the new tap room place out the back of Bristol beer factory the other day ahead of the last home game. It was a nice setup, but there was no sound on the early BT sport kick off (Chelsea vs someone ), they were playing some music instead. Not sure of they will give you the audio for the rugby that’s all. If they will then it’s a great shout
  18. Went to the reopened pony and trap in chew magna the other night for a steak night. They seem to be doing it like a banqueting service at present rather than book your own table time Food was nice but not spectacular. infuriatingly the knives were so blunt we couldn’t cut through the steaks (which were far from tough). Mentioned it to staff and apparently some new knives are on the way. Sure it will be back up to previous form in no time though, but perhaps a touch underwhelmed
  19. I popped into Cor for a midweek lunch the other day , was very nice. As it was only lunch we didn’t go massive on order like we prob would have in evening. I didn’t have a desert either but have latterly heard they are awesome sure both options will be good , and whichever one you pick you can keep the other in pocket for next time ha
  20. Anyone been to reopened casa Mia , now ‘Casa’ yet ?
  21. Might have missed something out but I reckon my top 5 in no particular order are the albums released this year by… Big Thief - 8/9 tunes I love on this Black Country New Road (gutted will never see this live, hope main fella is doing well though since leaving) Kendrick - sounded good anyway, then Glasto performance cemented it for me. Wow! Wet Leg - felt like everyone was waiting to write them off as one hit wonders but the album delivered. Catchy and really good fun Danger Mouse / Black Thoughts - heard a track or two on radio that peaked interest , whole album ace some honourable mentions for Yard act, jockstrap , Gabriel’s I reckon I maybe have missed loads this year so will try and check out some ideas here and in the album of the year lists. Meta critic do a good one compiling across all the mainstream reviewers
  22. Great booking. If resale gods shine I will be there with bells on. almost went to see him at AG Wednesday of Glasto last year as I didn’t travel down till Thursday am, in the end ducked it to avoid angering the good lady who already had kids for weekend getting to see him headline the pyramid would be incredible though. No better party setting on earth ha
