[esjade]

And Alchemist are playing Bar Broadway the night after

Opeth....just totally forget that weekend ok???

 

[Fade to Black]

sorry to say this but new alchemist sucks

 

[plattopus]

Of course it will be 18+ but if you think 90% of Opeth's audience is over 18 you're pretty stupid.

And if you think I wasn't exaggerating you're even stupider.

Anyway, and all ages show will not be profitable for the venue who makes a lot of money from the bar.

ANY venue that serves alcohol (and let's face it, Opeth won't be playing the MCG and Stadium Australia, so it's pretty much guaranteed they'll play bars) can't put on an all-ages show. If they did, they'd have to close the bar, and considering 90% of Opeth's audience would be over 18 I don't really see any place giving away all that profit for the benefit of a select few youngens.

Venues that serve alcohol can have all ages shows and keep the bar open, but you have to close off the bar area and have security checking ID as people go into the bar area, and making sure no one is leaving the area with alcohol. Metal For The Brain is all ages and has a bar, and entertainment centers still have the bars open when all ages are on.

The main reason smaller venues like The Metro and The Gaelic Club don't do them is because it means hiring more security, which means more money.
