点评:I bought tickets for the Octoberfest billed as an Ommpah band and german beer and food being available. When we arrived the tables were not clearly marked out so it was difficult to distinguish which row was which and even staff were confused. We went to one of the small bars that was busy, and considering this was an alcohol fuelled event, there were only two bar staff, one who was being trained, and quite a queue and wait at the bar. When we got to the bar, we were told one of the only two German beers available on tap was only available at the other bar which made no sense at all. It made me think of the saying couldn't arrange a drinking session in a brewery.
There were no staff in traditional German dress which you would expect. We did not purchase food as the food offer looked poor, basically from what we saw people got a small basket of chips and just a sausage. It was clear that there was nothing German or traditional about the food, and the food looked unappetising.
The music was very over bassed and extremely loud. In between the Oompah band there were boring waits of 30 minutes where generic English pop music was played. My partner's father had to take his hearing aid as the music was too over bassed. We ended up leaving early because the event was pretty dismal. The band that was playing the oompah was good but the boring 30 minute waits and poor offerings of the rest of the event, as well as the overly load sound led us to leave early.
翻译:我买了啤酒节的票,宣传上说会有欧姆巴乐队表演,而且提供德国啤酒和食物。我们到的时候,桌子没有明显的标识,很难分辨哪排是哪排,连工作人员都搞不清楚。我们去了一家很热闹的小酒吧,考虑到这是个以酒精为主题的活动,酒吧里只有两个服务员,其中一个还在培训,而且吧台前排起了长队。轮到我们的时候,他们告诉我们,仅有的两种德国生啤中,有一种只能在另一个酒吧喝到,这完全说不通。这让我想起了那句俗语:在啤酒厂里根本没法安排喝酒聚会。
没有一个服务员穿着传统的德国服装,这让人很意外。我们没有点食物,因为看起来选择很少,基本上我们看到的都是一小篮薯条和一根香肠。很明显,这些食物一点也不像德国菜,也不传统,而且看起来一点也不诱人。
音乐低音过重,音量也特别大。在铜管乐队表演的间隙,有长达30分钟的无聊等待时间,期间播放着千篇一律的英文流行音乐。我伴侣的父亲不得不摘下助听器,因为音乐的低音太重了。最终,我们提前离开了,因为这场活动实在令人失望。铜管乐队的演奏还不错,但那30分钟的无聊等待时间、其他环节乏善可陈的表演以及过重的音响效果,都让我们不得不提前离场。
