Well the bar and Deputy Phil seem to think so as there are bar staff and doorstaff in as if for a bop.

Apparently Dave is DJing too - might be worth Stacy sending a link-up or something.... unless I'm just being dense.

Oh well, I'll be in the library revising rather than in the venue anyway. Do we have a crew?

Update - Adam will be lighting if anyone has finished and fancies joining him and Dave on what is destined to be an empty venue..... I wonder if we have anyone to do bop till, or maybe it's free. It's a mystery!

I may go for the set up - there are a few things i would like to try and program in if we have time, plus it would be nice to say hi to people. As i have an Exam Saturday morning, if anyone sees me there past 10 please kick me out/tell me to eff off/frog march me home, despite any excuses/jobs i am doing/bribary/begging - i may not want to leave. Thanks (i think)

Josh - If you have an exam Saturday morning then you are banned from the building tonight! (If I have to be banned then you should be too ;-) )

For tonight - I think just make it as simple as is humanly possible as there is little point doing much - It'll all need to be struck again at the end of the night.

Haha - better to be at home than in the Union though - you never get away at the time you intend to - you should just relax the night before an exam. Good luck.

I could try and argue the point that ents is relaxing but .... well i cant. Oh well, the next bop i can do is only a month or so away....... *starts daydreaming about lighting designs and programming the pearl"

Ah, I somehow missed this thread. I did end up at the bop last night, though - a reasonable turnout (for the middle of exam time) by the end of the night.

I believe it was 190 bands sold or something like that.

Those who were there last night will of course have noticed that I was waving my camera around a bit at the start of the night, before anybody was in. Here are a few of the better pictures:
