MC Hammer LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL well that'll be about as good as the Vanilla Ice gig though - shocking!

BA has been here so many times, no one cares anymore.

Bring back Desert Rock I say!

Not impressed with the line up for Bike week, hardly rock n roll is it?

Most gigs i'v been to in the Gulf are shite , Bands looking for a big payday and a muted ex-pat crowd who really just come along because it's an event and not to see the band.

When you do get good bands people just don't get it , The Gulf and Rock & Roll is a bit of a contradiction.....

In my book go for the Rotana!
I heard the same thing - the noise from Allure night club at the Yacht Club goes on thoughout the night and there isn't anything the hotel can do.

It's not surprising - he's a miserable old git...

I tried to book one of the hotel packages on Yas Island, but they were all sold out.

On Radio 2 yesterday, they were doing a competition for 2 x Golden Circle tickets, and advertising the packages at Yas Island again. I send in a text with the correct answer and pointed out that the packages were actually sold out. 10mins later Daisy from Radio 2 called back and I thought I'd won the tickets, she only asked me what hotels I had checked with, thanked me and then gave the tickets too someone else. Cheeky mare!
