So there gone now :-(

I was wondering whether they could of been turned into a nightclub or music venue of sorts, the acoustics and echoes things when you stand inside them are absolutely amazing (Go to a power station open day and sign up for one of the guided tours, you'll see what I mean...). You could clap and hear your own echo come back four or five times...


I’m wondering whether that would have worked for such a venue? Stick a roof on top and check the walls for integrity, give them a bit of a clean and put a stage slap in the middle of each one... :afro:

From an audio engineering point of view it sounds like a  nightmare to control the sound... But it might make a great recording space... If only I could afford one :-)

I bet they would have made more money than the ill-fated Millennium Dome


The millenium dome, now O2 Arena, is actually rather sucessful now :-D

BioMass tends to be anaerobic production of methane, for burning... which is actually quite clean :-)
