MCJamTart Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Greetings from the EIF @Tynecastle! Wonderful summer evening. Doors opened 530 so pretty quiet. Looks like a great night ahead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swanny17 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It looks fab, I’m just curious as to why the stage isn’t a bit further back? Going from Ann’s statement though, I’m wondering if she’s hinting at Tynie being used as a concert venue more often? What an an atmosphere that would generate!!!!

MCJamTart Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It all feels a bit surreal! You wouldn't know the green green grass is below all those chairs on the surface. Tiny bit of pitch beyond the orchestra pit/ stage. Pitch seating seems a free for all..sit where you want for now. Gulls circling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Really wanted to go to this, wish it hadn't been free to prevent people taking tickets for the sake of it/people not really interested in the event going along just because it was free. In fairness, I didn't know I was going to be up this weekend so it's more sour grapes on my part due to my poor planning 😂 Made alternative plans so I hope the are just as good and that everyone going to Tynecastle tonight has a great evening. Delighted the weather is good for it Edited August 2, 2019 by Taffin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seymour M Hersh Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 *******s. The EIF website let me down completely when I tried and tried to book two seats. Was sold out by the time I tried again. Was hoping it pished down on you all tonight. But I'm not bitter about missing out. Oh yes I am!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird, King and Michael Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Outside is a shambles....there are no stewards separating out those with phone or printed tickets.
