Comedy night
Overall rating: 4.5

The comedians were all very different which made the night great.
The staff were helpful and it was well organised.
I've already recommended it to a friend.

Oh My God! 2nd Birthday at Opus
Overall rating: 3

Danny Byrd played a decent liquid set (including a couple of his own tunes - Red Mist and Goldrush) to a room which wasn't very full, but had some energy to it. We left for a pint at Oyster Bar (probably missed Coki), and got back for Spor and Chris Renegade, who played a nice variety of dirty and liquid, but sadly didn't venture into darker, grimier realms (probably because the crowd prefer the lighter stuff). Grooverider's set was generally pretty good, and the crowd by this point was as dense and energetic as you'd expect at a typical DnB event. Solid night overall.

opus is not a good venue
Overall rating: 3

bass in the main room was too loud and too quiet in the 2nd. Sappo wasn't great either. bar9 is definitely worth seeing again next time, just hope that it isn't at opus.

tristanhall's Review of Bad Company,Qemists, SBS+YM, Jenna G + Hijak @Oh My God at Opus
Overall rating: 1

We went to see Qemists and Jenna G.
They didn't turn up.
We weren't told until 1.30am that they wouldn't be there.
This was the response to my complaint:
"I can imagine that must have been really dissapointing! :( Unfortunatley, you are not entitled to a refund though as the event still went ahead."
Thanks for nothing, guys.

baldmosher's Review of Ed Rush + Optical, SPOR, Lynx + Kemo... @ Oh My God at Opus
Overall rating: 4.5

Even though I'd just come back from Bang Face Weekender, this was still awesome. Room2 was a bit cack sound quality wise, and I gather the PA died during the night, but a cracking night in the main room once the DnB really got going after midnight. ER&O and Spor were brilliant but I can't figure out why they both chose to finish a tearout DnB set by playing a rather unimpressive dubstep tune?

foogfdfgGood night, not what was on the ticket???
Overall rating: 3.5

Really good night, but few major problems. Drinks promoted all night at £1.50, that was a cup of beer that seemingly ran out after the first hour...

This is like the third time in a row OMG nights have put out a line up where the main act/s simply aren't there. According to dirtyphonics myspace, they had no intention of being there. It's a bit shite that people are paying like 8£ to come see people who have no intention of showing up. In fact, it's fraud. I know this happens regularly at nights and it can't be helped, but come on..

Can't wait for Spor, but will he even be there? Do I want to pay again for a ticket for artists that have no idea they are even on the ticket? Nope. I dont want to pay 8 pound for random residents and I know i'm not the only one.

It's a shame as it's a really promising promotion and all involved had a really good night and at the end of the day that's what it's all about.

However feel really fucking cheated. AGAIN.

Not a bad night, apart from non of the line up was actually there!! Randall, no show. Dirtyphonics/Current value???????????????


hi Randall was on at 10pm on the main stage playing a jtek set with me mcing to him Current Value was on in room two from 1am till 2:15 thats was the down stairs arena unfortunatly dirtyphonics had problems with flights but we brought in SIGMA and PHANTASY to smash up the Dance floor hope this clears a few things






Can anyone tell me who the act were with a female singer with a wicked voice was. They were on in the main room around 1.30 am at a rough guess

James G was the DJ Kimira the singer and Me the MC and yes she is awesome
