Newcastle arena

I’m going to my first ever concert at the Utilita Arena at the end of October to see Korn and have a seated ticket. I’ve read some pretty awful reviews about the arena particularly the seats! Any tips for a first-timer, especially going alone- temperature inside the venue, facilities,best way to get there (drive, taxi etc)- would be great.Thank you!

Hairdresser recommendations

Hi, I’m looking for a hairdresser that could give me a proper wolf cut. I’m not from Newcastle, but I’m willing to travel because I’ve tried so many places and none really satisfied me. Any recommendations? x

Muay Thai/MMA Gyms

Hi all, I’ve just moved to Newcastle for work and I’m looking for some recommendations for gyms. I have about a year’s experience training Muay Thai, but would like to start BJJ at some point. I am based in Quayside so ideally walking distance as I don’t have a car.

I’ve read Northern Kings has a good rep, but also seen Newcastle Fight Centre is a lot closer. Any experiences with them?

I’m 24 (not that it really matters) and would be great to find a good gym/community. Not looking to go pro and can’t really afford to go to work with a concussion but would be great to find a nice gym.

Thanks all!

Lemington 1970s

Hoping someone might be able to help me out. My dad was a Cub Scout in Lemington in the 1970s and has always told me stories about it. Now I’m a scout leader elsewhere and I’d really like to have a necker like the one he would’ve worn at the time, only he can’t remember what it looked like. He thinks it might’ve been yellow or green but isn’t sure.

I’ve tried to look into it but I haven’t found anything.

If anyone was part of that group around then or has family who was that they could ask about it I’d be very grateful.

Thank you.

Never experienced racism until revisiting Newcastle

I'm still shocked. I grew up here. I went to state* school here. I have a slight bit of asian blood. My friend says I don't even look discernibly asian. I was walking along Pier Road in Tynemouth and a guy riding a bicycle shouts out: 'Excuse me, which way is China?'. I know there are bad apples everywhere but it's hard to not have this impact my feelings for this place. Back home there wouldn't me such racism thrown at random people on the street.

RIP Black Metal pioneer and Geordie legend of Venom - Conrad "Cronos" Lant

Via Venom Facebook Page:

IN MEMORIAM — CONRAD “CRONOS” LANT

It is with profound sadness and broken hearts that we share the news that Conrad “Cronos” Lant has passed away.

For more than four decades, Conrad’s voice, bass and vision were at the heart of VENOM.

From the first dark rumblings of Welcome to Hell, through Black Metal, At War With Satan, Possessed and beyond, he created something that changed heavy music forever.

VENOM never followed the rules.
They forged their own path.

And Conrad was there at the centre of it all — uncompromising, fearless and unmistakable.

The Legions have always been an important part of VENOM. To everyone who stood with the band through the years, bought the records, came to the shows, wore the shirts, shared the music and kept the flame burning — Cronos was always grateful for your loyalty and support.

A message from Nathan, Conrad’s son:

“I want to thank all of the Legions for all of the support you have given my dad over the years. I know he really appreciated you all. He has laid down his soul, and his music will live on. The legend of Cronos will never die.”

His music will never die.
His voice will never fade.

And the legacy of VENOM will live on through the music he created and through the Legions around the world who continue to carry that flame.

Thank you, Conrad.
Thank you, Cronos.
Thank you for the music.
Thank you for the memories.

Our deepest love and condolences go to Nathan & Hel, friends and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

REST IN PEACE, CONRAD

THE LEGEND LIVES ON

🖤

VENOM

Art in Underpass

Does anyone know the craic with all the new art that has appeared in the underpass under Pilgrim Street, Cuthbert House at one end? I’d particularly like to know the artist who made The Mothman!

Quick blast of nostalgia?

I'm going through my bookshelves to downsize and this piece of history just fell out of it. Needless to say, this hasn't been read in a while, given I would have been three when this was valid.
