The TEU in Eindhoven was an excellent venue, but as Andy pointed out if you were in the first 12 or so rows you got a strained neck.

The Alter Oper is on another level completely ! possibly the greatest venue for a concert Ive ever attended. :)

As i said before "St David's Hall" in Cardiff is NO Alte Oper but would suit TD down to the ground.......PERFECT venue in every which way and they have not been here since 1976 :idea: :wink: :idea: :wink: :idea:

I've seen a few shows there and they've all been great. Everyone gets a good view of the stage and the acoustics are great.....


...plus it's just down the road from here.

Any place that can't even spell the name of the acts appearing there deserves to be knocked down ;)
