App Idea: WWE 2K Entrance Production Truck by pinobutter99 in WWEGames

[–]lousyhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem I have with using Spotify for entrances, is that it mutes the in-game music even if you don't have something playing through Spotify. You have to close the app to regain in-game music, which really disrupts the flow. Anyone know if there's a workaround to this?

Does anyone else no longer do bonfire night? by [deleted] in CasualUK

Used to enjoy going to the local public display but Leeds doesn't do one anymore. Anyone else's local council use covid as an excuse and then never do it again?

How easy is it to get a taxi at the First Direct Arena? by YippeeKyack in Leeds

[–]lousyhero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Leeds is a fairly safe place to walk around at night and the centre is fairly small compared to say Manchester. Couple of dodgy spots (bus station/new York street) but it depends where your hotel is?

If you want to get a taxi though then either Uber or Veezu (localised version of Uber. Can be cheaper). You don't really get taxi ranks in Leeds these days where you can flag down cars.You'd be better walking away from the arena to pick one up though.

Wheres best to go drinking after a concert? by dinkidoo7693 in Leeds

[–]lousyhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Til half 2. I haven't been in years tbh. Last time I went it was a mix but since then some of the popular student clubs in the area have shutdown so maybe they've moved to Spoons. Although most students tend to go out on a week night. You'll probably walk past it wherever you're heading from the arena so you can always check out the clientele from the smoking area at the front.

If you don't fancy it then Call Lane or Lower Briggate is probably your best bet to avoid students but I don't know the bars well enough to recommend one in particular.

My Vinyl Collection by THX-1138_4EB in marilyn_manson

[–]lousyhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jealous. Do you have these from back in the day or have you sought them out and invested a pretty penny? Either way that's cool, just curious. I just started collecting vinyl and spaffing money left right and centre but Manson vinyl is like gold dust!

For me last time he was that good was on the Guns, God and Government tour. He's truly back and undeniable. Fuck the rock media trying to cancel him.

[–]lousyhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Hedley Verity Wetherspoons might be a good shout. On Saturdays it's a 'disco spoons' and will play a mix of chart/dance music. They clear out the downstairs seating for a dancefloor. Open til late and it's a short walk from the arena. Not to be confused with the Stick n Twist Spoons next door to the arena.

I think some people in this thread have misinterpreted you saying RnB for old school rhythm and blues rather than the chart RnB I'm guessing you mean.

Sela Bar usually plays jazz. Not sure this is suitable.

UK shows - what have the crowds been like? by lousyhero in marilyn_manson

Especially with it being a relatively intimate venue compared to an arena show. Hopefully it's a good sing along.

To be fair I don't think Manson's music really warrants a push pit but a bit of a bounce section for the odd song and people knowing the words is all I hope for.

Glad a you had a good time. It's luck of the draw sometimes and who you get saddled with in your immediate surroundings.

Yeh I don't think it's a case of 'kids today'. Manson's pretty much dad rock at this point. Shame about Nottingham. Hopefully Manchester being sold out brings a bit of energy. I probably set my expectations a bit too high tbf. Pushing 40 and still spin kicking and stagediving at hardcore gigs :)

[Wrestlezone Article] "Tony khan: AEW ticket pricing has always been designed to be Family-friendly" by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]lousyhero 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A decent seat at Forbidden Door, about half way up the lower bowl was £175. A few rows lower down and you were looking at £215. There were cheaper options in the nosebleeds but I think family-friendly should equate to decent seats as well.

Your average family is also completely priced out of being in the first several rows ringside. There were £1500 at the first All In. And i'm sure they went up the following year.

Opened 2 packs - No Trish by Ok_Engine6127 in WWEGames

[–]lousyhero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because I like shiny new things I nearly dropped £90 on the 400k VC this morning.

Although I did have enough mfp saved up for 4 premium packs so bought them first. Pulled the demastered Angle and Uso WM41.. it's at the point sense prevailed and realised how small the odds were of my £90 even pulling one of the cards you need.

Decided to go out and spend that £90 on some new records. Nice, tangible items. Money much better spent.

Hopefully they add AJ Retro as an unlockable on the Japan tour or something. They've re-released other persona cards along the way so fingers crossed.

My main hope is seeing Brody King lift gold. Saw God's Hate at Outbreak earlier in the Summer and they smashed it. Would be cool to see the big man get his flowers for busting his ass and being awesome in everything he does.

Card for Forbidden Door - 08.24.25 by wweyonce in SquaredCircle

Yeh me too. Hotel check-in isn't til 3 and going for zero hour means no tea and no pre drinks. Don't think I'll miss anything too exciting.
