The baby and the bathwater [Urbis, Manchester] by Emily (My Shitty Twenties) http://travelswithmybaby.wordpress.com/2009/09/29/59-the-baby-and-the-bathwater-urbis-manchester/#comment-373 Emily (My Shitty Twenties) Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:06:46 +0000 http://travelswithmybaby.wordpress.com/?p=422#comment-373 You just made me get goosebumps about DPercussion. You are right, we are so lucky. Having worked in Urbis too, I know the way it makes art accessible to people who might not set foot in a conventional gallery. Who could forget the Hacienda Exhibition? Or the Peter Saville one? Or the Urban Gardeing one? Or 'Play'? Damn, it can't go, it just can't. There's the community work too, having just worked on Reclaim I can vouch for how crucial that is and what a perfect hub Urbis makes for it. It can't go, it just can't, but tragically I think it will. You just made me get goosebumps about DPercussion. You are right, we are so lucky.

OR the millions spent of shifting men (and only men) from one club to another... the history of some shady manager who blows his cash on girls and *** booze and.... words fail me again. why not be bolder and tear down the building and build a football academy that actually might have some results and visitors...! the city wont win. it already lost when someone thought this was creative thinking. well done. what is there to say about football…? the type of leather used to craft a nice round bouncy shape?

Football is about playing, watching and participating in it... maybe invest in a better outdoor play area around the URBIS but for gods sake - think about what you are proposing! A football museum? Words fail. free maybe but with no one in it.

I was impressed by the venue too - once the coach driver had managed to find it! Alexandra Park is well worth seeking out too - beautiful.
