We can definately vouch for Canfly , they are realy good people to deal with and will acomidate your needs if at all possible, and their rates are TOTALY reasonable and the gear is at least kept in good working order, not like some others on that list I cant mention.

We practice at the Killingroom... it's a good space with good gear
Must have changed since the last time I practiced there. Granted it was about 2 years ago. The acoustics in the room on the extreme left as you walk in the door was like playing inside a concrete water tank. Try and get the middle or right room if you book. Also, Floss doesn't have anything to do with it anymore. |

Left room is very 'Dead' sounding, the others are much more live. personally I prefer the middle room- have to say it would have to be one of the bigger rooms I've practiced in too. bigger than the big room at intergalactic in any case.
Floss still manages the place in the mornings but sold the killing room to George a while back.

Totally gutted about the RF practice room closing, however, we now use Creative House Parnell, its real good, good gear not bad rooms...downside practice is only 6-10pm.
