Jamboross Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Absolutely cracking evening. Surreal seeing Tynecastle like that but some absolutely wonderful music and a fantastic atmosphere around the place. First time in the fans bar tonight too, amazed at how reasonable the prices were! We absolutely must try and do more of this kind of thing during the summer months, must have made a fair few quid tonight and it gives us a chance to sell the club to non fans. The three folk I was with tonight (two non football fans and a lapsed Hibby) all commented on how good the experience was and are going to get tickets for A War of Two Halves as well. Really need to do something about those seagulls though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super T Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Really enjoyed tonight. Good music, relaxed atmosphere, and was in good company. Had to help squeeze a large American through the wheatfield turnstile! Seriously the turnstile sizes were causing many an issue that I seen! Went to the pie stand for some juice until it was pointed out we could get a drink, which we did not expect, so we gladly obliged, with gusto! The star wars and superman finale was superb. Spotted a storm trooper earlier but was well outdone by the super father and daughter. Fantastic and kudos to you sir. Personal f avourite was the pink panther. Reminded me that I really should've seen stuff in the jazz festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morph Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) It’s a strange one for hibs fans to be bitter about as hearts didn’t really have much to do with this beyond the venue hire. The concert was completely organised by EIF and hosted by themselves and Standard Life. The concert could’ve easily been put at Easter Road but with them focusing quite heavily on Leith last year with Leith Theatre being brought back, I think it was mentioned at the programme launch event that they wanted to focus on the west of the city. Ann Budge didn’t organise this so all the wee jibes at her are pretty daft Of course all the attention wouldn’t be on her by people attending the events in the build up because it really had little to do with hearts and more to do with Tynecastle as a venue. As for the pitch, it will be fine. From the wee bit of info I was fed I think the pitch was one of the biggest concerns early on so there had to be assurances made that it would be fine. Obviously they’ve done their homework and made sure the protection was adequate rather than throwing down a bit of sheet and hoping for the best.

Its a good event to be a part of though and definitely paves the way for tynecastle to be used in the future when murrayfield is too big. With meadowbank being shut down it leaves a hole that tynecastle could potentially fill. ER could too, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for the city to have 3 stadiums capable of events like that. I was laughing at everyone leaving when walking along Gorgie Road last night. I’ve never seen a more orderly exit in my life, everyone sticking to the pavements and apologising to the cars if they got in their way Edited August 3, 2019 by Morph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 We don’t have a particularly good record in pitch care. Before the last pitch was laid which cost about £1 million, various reseeding attempts were undertaken, all of which ended up poorly. The goal mouths, touchlines and corner flags in particular were a disgrace for a club like Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
