How ye! the show had some small issues tonight but mostly it was great.
Super good crowd, Nearly packed.

Money raised from door 128$ ( not a lot but was only 5$ at the door )
Bar raised 325

There was roughly 30 beers there and a decent amount of ciders. I expected
a really quiet night if promotion and facebook invites are anything to go
by so just bought a flat of beer thinking that'd be well enough. But
everything sold out completely. Sold that last 2 ciders at the end of the
night. Which is good.

The only issue was 2 guys who came in from around the area. One guy who I
thought seemed pretty chill but whilst I was getting change Noelle told me
they had to ask him to leave as he was trying to steal someone's phone. The
person who he was trying to steal from was super chill about it apparently.
I went outside after and asked did he try and steal a phone and he said no.
He was fairly drunk at that stage but non violent and pretty peaceful.

The other guy was who I def have seen around was this hyper small guy. I'm
pretty sure he told me one night he's Ethiopian if that helps you know who
he is. He was acting kind of weird and hyper and but not enough to be
kicked out. So I just asked him to be chill and he seemed cool and was even
chatting to some folks.

Then when I was washing up some puke from outside the door someone told me
he had smashed the mirror in the first bathroom. I went in closed the
bathroom off, asked him did he do it but he of course said no. So I told
him to leave, which he did. My friend Josh said he was waiting outside the
bathroom and heard the smash and watched this guy leave the bathroom. When
mopping up I noticed the other bathroom's cupboard where we keep T.P in had
the door popped off from the lock. If it was from tonight it was most
certainly him. I had more than enough volunteers but I totally did not
expect him to be an arse hole like that. I'm going to find a mirror to
replace it this week.

Otherwise it was great, good money. Good crowd full of people who I've
never seen before and all seemed stoked on the venue.

I'd also like to recommend Jill ( who was in Jelly Boys) and her friend
Darrel who I work with now too. He ruled on sound and she was fantastic on
the door. Both are super eager to volunteer and help out as much as they
can and would be great options for bottom liners that I would trust.

Sorry about the ramble! x
