To be honest the significance of the name of the picture passed me by completely!

I had remembered David posting about giving three Beovsion 7s to a music project in Manchester so when I saw three of them on a wall I just needed to sift through King Street's recent posts! Being first was just a matter of being on the forum when I should have been working

KingStreet:

Along with a few other correct answers - which I have to say surprised me - but then its a good thing, as the products are there partly as PR - so if awareness of the venue is good, then it should be worthwhile.

Naming the picture BOTW.JPG was a mistake. Just need to google "BOTW manchester". Then I saw that you posted about this project on this site before, so I guess that others that has followed the site more regulary might have guessed it even easier...

ooops !!

I can see that know - to be honest, I didn't pick up on the file name being visible..... although, Simon was still the first to follow the (simple) trail described by ridax, so he wins fair and square.

Wirral Simon - take a bow

Fast reply and pretty much 100% correct.

Simon - you have email ( albeit a bit late...sorry...been busy) and will shortly have a beoprize too !!

The Band on the Wall has a rolling schedule, part funded by the Arts cCouncil, to archive performances, many of which will be/are being screened on the BV7's in the adjacent Picturehouse - which is a fabulous space. There is also a Beosound 4 and two pairs of Beolab 4000's - which sound amazing in the (quite large) room, which play music suitable for the genre of artist performing on any given day.

There is also an educational programme of workshops and other stuff for local schools and community groups.

The main venue is a fine place to go - excellent sound, nicely and sympathetically refurbished, and a good noght out. Worth visiting of any beoworlders are in town.

Congratulations Simon,

Best Regards

David

At a Jazz Club, and they're there so that the acts backstage can watch watch going on on-stage?

Total guess - but if you blow up the image then squint really hard, it looks like the screen says "jazzmovie" or "jazzgroove" or something similar on it?

Just Googled 'Jazz Club Manchester' - and got Matt & Phreds.. so that's my venue. This is fun being on the receiving end of a competition - thanks guys!

Lee

PS - My second guess is that it's Jeff Goldblums house and this is his special TV room for when he turns into 'The Fly'.

The TV in the middle is the only one working and covering a hole in the wall... The other two are not connected and just covering holes in the wall...
