WUK — Attraction in Vienna

This review refers to the 'selbsthilfe werkstatt' section of the WUK. Very odd bike workshop, that one. The idea is they help you fix your own bike for a small fee, thus ideal for students. The mechanics/'trainers' they have appear to be asylum seekers, which is I think a great integration effort on the part of the WUK. Unfortunately, I personally found the manners of these young men not always appropriate. Also, the time and attention you are given is minuscule, and you (at least as a male..) are left pretty much on your own, therefore the money saving really translates to a waste of time. That's too bad because one of the permanent staff (called Tekim I think) was actually a really nice guy, but a bit overwhelmed by the demand. Have to say that, next time my bike breaks down, I'll just fix it myself, or pay a professional workshop. Good idea, but not so well...

From the start the sound quality was meh, not terrible but could've definitely been better. But the thing that made everything worse was that for some reason no sort of ventilation was on although it was a 32°C day. At first if was just inconvenient but towards the middle of the show the sweat of the poor band members started causing technical issues and forced them to skip one of the songs that was planned.. I can't say the concert was completely ruined because Leprous themselves were amazing and took everything in good spirit but I left the venue furious with the place. I'll consider ever attending a concert...

Really nice place, i really enjoyed being there, there was a bathroom, and wifi even, it was really comfy for waiting for my concert. Altough the security didn’t even take a look inside my bag, and still said i have to put it down, and i only brought things for a concert obviously. And it was a4, which is far as i know is allowed at every venue. I get it we should bring small bags, but it was really a4, and not even full. And i’ve been to a lot of concerts before so i know the etiquette.That made me really mad, i didn’t even have cash with me to pay for the bag being there(my...
