Banksy at Bristol Museum

Everytime i've been in the area the q has been massive. Too much for me. Q's make me dizzy and up there is so busy anyway I can't handle it. No populist art for me.
 
I've heard the Banksy exhibition will be staying open throughout September but it's not mentioned on the Bristol Museum website - anyone know if this is correct?

I think this is bullshit. I emailed the museum to ask this question as i'm moving down in September and wanted to see it. They told me that it's unlikely as Banksy's not interested in keeping it open that long and they have another exhibition scheduled for the end of September.

Well, some people have been whingeing in the paper about it closing at the end of August, so I guess we will have to wait and see if it's extended.

Personally I can't wait for it to finish, there are actually people in Bristol who have no interest in the exhibition and quite like just being able to go to the museum and wander in and out on a whim.
 
bloody hell, are queues still getting longer? I'm meant to be taking mrs b on monday - birthday treat thing. wonder if playing the cripple card will help at all?

I attempted to go yesterday but the queues were crazy. I went to cafe instead and the staff there reckoned it was best to get there for 8am in order to ensure getting in. It seems as though the average queueing time is about 2 hours.

I'm hoping it gets extended so that I can go when all the kids have gone back to school.
 
i just think he's a tosser because of something he said in an interview in the times this week...

Q "Do you support Rovers or City then?
A "I want the whole of Bristol to visit the show, so I’m not going to alienate anybody by saying what a pathetic footballing side Bristol Rovers are."

fucking prick :mad:

we got there at 8.50 yesterday morning. Got in about half twelve. Were it not a birthday treat thing, I'd have gone 'sod that' pretty much as soon as we arrived.

Yeah I attempted to go for my birthday also but did think 'sod that' but then again I live in Brizzle so I can kinda go anytime.
 
The Banksy exhibition at Bristol Museum has provided a £10 million boost for the city's economy, increasing hotel B&B bookings and more than doubled the turnover of local businesses.
The free show of street art has also raised more than £45,000 in donations to the museum - nearly four times the annual amount.

Difficult to criticise him given this.
The guy is doing a massive amount for his home town.
