Do not speak of The Other Bar. And do not open The Door That Must Not Be Opened, or ever speculate as to what might be behind it.

Been my experience (from lots of metal gigs) that the scary-looking types tend to be harmless. Problem at Fac251 is that it filled up with “laddish” types, and they’re the sort of people I’ve had enough abuse from in the past to be wary of. And I was certainly getting some hostile looks from some of them, as if I was an unwelcome interloper on “their” territory.

I felt the same way at the gig at Esquire’s in Bedford about 18 months ago. Panic Room had to battle against the thump-thump-thump from the band in the hall below and when leaving I was unnerved by the sight of groups of ageing heavy-weight skinheads drinking outside the venue. However, I have to say that they were generally good natured and there was no trouble, but all the same, Esquire’s is one venue I have no desire to hurry back to!

Hi Tim

Thanks for publishing review of Panic Room at Manchester – I was beginning to think there was only you there!!
Looking forward to more Panic Room and Mostly Autumn gigs later this year
Cheers

Corrected the new song title – Had been relying on memory.

Tim – just for completeness, Friday’s support was Marck “Marbled” Whiley.

And wasn’t the new song called Song For Tomorrow, or did the title change when the band hit the wrong side of the Pennines?

Cheers
Ian
