I received some interesting feedback on my item about uncomfortable theatre seats. I'm not sure if my correspondent wants to be named, but here's what was said:

The same thought had crossed my mind. Especially the seats at the Powerhouse. After sitting through Johnno my back was killing me. Fortunately, Keating was shorter! Hope Lano and Woodley do come back to the Lyric. The seating (and parking) influenced my decision not to book.

I know that the Brisbane Powerhouse folk - and nearby residents - are aware of the dearth of parking, but I'm not sure what's being done about it. It's funny that new businesses are often refused council permission unless they provide sufficient parking. When the council owns the venue, it's another matter altogether.
