Review of An Evening with Rick Witter (Shed Seven) hosted by Clint Boon

Overall rating: 4 Verified review

On the whole a great evening. Music was very good. Rick and Clint were absolutely brilliant. Unfortunately the noise from some of the audience at the bar and chatting amongst themselves for almost the whole event made it very difficult to hear especially during the Q&A.

Review of An Evening with Rick Witter (Shed Seven) hosted by Clint Boon

Overall rating: 3 Verified review

It wasn't an evening with Rick Witter...he was billed as bring on at 8pm and didn't appear until after 9pm....for about 30 or 40 minutes then seemed to need a break before the Q&A. The discussion lacked substance and cohesion....total lack of direction and poor questioning from Clint Boon. Glad the tickets were relatively cheap otherwise I'd have felt robbed.
The first support musician was good but the second one went on for too long...but by that point we were wondering if the main act was going to show up.
On the plus side...lovely venue, would use for a private party but not this sort of event...the bar in the room makes it difficult to hear the conversation from the stage.

Was a Q&A event but could hardly hear the interview as people in rows behind us and at the bar were constantly talking/shouting. Should have been a steward there to keep them quiet or tell them to leave.

Loved the banter between Rick & Clint, some of their stories were hilarious. My only gripe is directed at the venue; people were talking through the Q&A making it difficult to hear Rick & Clint, the venue could have made more of an effort to silence the talkers.

Everything was perfect except for what appeared to be the venue owner and his mates who were pished-up and talking/laughing over the performances. Really irritating, and totally rude.

The performance of Nirvana's music was outstanding, extremely sensitive to the beloved source material, and it came across loud and clear that the band were massive fans. I'd see it again in a heartbeat, and can't commend the musicians enough for their work.

We had a group of overly drunk piss smelling people sat right in front of us after the show started. They pushed the seating back to make room for chairs they bought from elsewhere in the venue. Said they were mates with the owner when asked to move

Amazing host! Everything was well presented and researched. I really enjoyed all the little side stories and the humour that was brought into it. Audience involvement was minimal but enough to get people involved. I really enjoyed it and I will definitely be coming again to similar events! ð??
