theres loads of little shitty towns that are far worse

i will love the place forever
For starters the survey was a bag of shite and like most other northern large towns, small cities and larger cities, the majority of people who live there are proud to do so. A lot of estates south seem to have less people happy to live there.

And yes its true that Middlesbrough is pretty shite, but take Sunderland 7/8 years ago, it was a foul place to have a night out even though the nights out were good. Sunderland has a lot of regeneration ahead but has already done a lot of its own regeneration by way of large business owners/club/bar owners and other goverment related development, a lot of which has links with the development newcastle gateshead (and years ago the quayside) Now there is huge regeneration in sunderland but not on the scale and money to be spent on Boro.

If Boro develops anything like Sunderland has then its going the right way. The authorities knocking terraced houses down are just stupid though, considering the council could buy, renovate and rent out or sell at minumum profit (new affordable home sceme ring a bell), instead they demolish and build shitty new builds where you can hear your neighbours backside being spanked and have half the place falling apart because the building guarantees are not worth the paper they are printed on.

Does buying your tickets online actually get you to the front or just in the que-jump que again? How much are they online too, take it theres a bookign fee? and probably can't get NUS/Membership money off? Then again, those extra charges would be well worth walking straight in!

Posted on the Wax:On Newcastle (Annie Mac) Event

Still not 100% clear but it looks like if you buy an advance ticket you can go straight in?

Yeah thats sounds about right, ticket holders should get full priority above anyone who isnt holding a piece of paper. Its not like its fabric.

bought tickets for anni mac, but you can only pick them up at the box office, so does that mean it will be just like being on the guestlist really?

Yeah, that did cross my mind earlier but forgot to write it, lol, Im sure when we bought advanced tickets in the past its just a list of names which you get checked against, but considering youve already paid and guaranteed a space inside hopefully, there shouldnt be any reason why you cant just walk in after they check your name! Unless everyone is so pissed off with the que situation that they all pre buy their tickets and cause a similar jam, ha!

Got an email back from Dan Wax:On, confirming what we kinda know by now, they are really pushing that ques wont be a problem this time as it seems alot of people have been put off! he said they havnt been a problem in the past and they wont be again, aparently it was down to them not beign able to take the money fast enough, he says buying advance tickets will mean you can go straight in! Will be getting mine, along with my soulwax shindig ticket later in the week when i get paid!
