K well the union firstly needs to be open through the day so when i get out of lectures withe me mates i can come down and have a few beers at lunch,
The Union is open during the day. The building opens at 8am weekdays with waterhole serving from 11am.
It will shut at 9pm (except wed and fri where there are club nights on) So that is plenty of time for a few beers at lunch and then some more. |

The live bands scene is an interesting thing, I think however that as far as touring local bands and top bands go, you have to be on the right circuit, as the unions new refurb has put them at a somewhat new venue to hold acts in I believe they're working on getting on the circuit for things like that, or atleast that's one of the discussions I had last year  |

for live bands its also a case of who you know....
I know many promoters that will be able to get live bands into the union, and that would be willing to do it, Which I have suggested, but I don't think people are listening. A shame really....... |

First step is to stop charing Portsmouth NUS card holders for entry.
Wednesdays are pretty much as good as you'd expect, I've never been to a quiet Wednesday.
Friday and Saturdays the union is competeing with all the other clubs in Portsmouth. With Time moving into Commercial Road, route doing a Student night on Wednesdays the Union is going to have to up its game to compete.
The colour of the walls doesn't make a venue good. While its nice to have a funky club layout its not really an option while the univerisity want to use it as venue/exam space.
One consideration would be to buy some (or use the existing) pack away floors/stage. I think creating a seperate seating area would give lux a better feel.
From a commercial point of view a companies two biggest expenses are staff & and rent. The rent you can't do much about. Staff however is a whole different matter. From what I understand the union is to heavily staffed. And not where it matters (bar staff)
I'd love to get my hands on the unions book and find out what it makes and breaks on and kick some people into touch! |
