Any gig at the Scala in Kings Cross prior to around 2008. I'm all in favour of equal opportunities, but it's probably not a good idea to employ a deaf person as sound engineer.


I quite like The Scala. It's a nice place. Dinosaur Jr. blew the walls off that place one night. Fucking magic!


Yes - it's a good venue now that they've got the PA/acoustics sorted out. Nonetheless, I saw both Animal Collective and Comets on Fire there in the mid-noughties and on both occasions the sound was so poor that fans were exiting before the end in droves. By the end of the Comets gig there was hardly anyone left. By the time of the next gig I saw there (Meat Puppets / Wooden Shjips) it was sounding much better though, so I can only assume ythey'd taken note of customer complaints and done something about it.
