  I was there end of May for BADBADNOTGOOD. Staff was welcoming but sound was terrible and the temperature at the balcony was unbearable! Fortunately, they started giving free glasses of water, which was really appreciated. Not sure if it was a temporary issue, but I'll think twice before buying tickets to this venue again.

  A great venue for that's both large enough for an impressive crowd, yet cozy enough to feel intimate. Sight lines are excellent from both levels. Seating is comfortable, but being seated for a show does take some getting used to. Definitely the better of the O2 branded venues in the city.
  
  The layout is pretty efficient, too, making it easy to find necessities during intermissions. That is, as long as your necessities include toilets and booze. I assume slipping out for a cheeky smoke is possible, as well, but I can't comment on the ease of doing so. Nor whether it's difficult to gain re-entry. It's possible favours may have to be provided in order to do so. Or not. I'm really not a good source for said information.
  
  If you're looking for a great venue to catch your fave acts in the city, you won't be disappointed here. Staff is friendly and know how to handle crowds, like a well-oiled machine.

  Why, oh why do so many of my favourite bands always have to play this atrocious venue?! Worst security you will find in London and most of the time terrible sound quality. Beware heading out for a quick cigarette towards the end, they won't even let you back in for the last few songs! Bouncers also confiscated a mate's laptop from his backpack for no good reason and became aggressive when he politely enquired as to the reason why.
