Chains at the top. Retro/re-bolted. Just another sport route. Straight up would be interesting.

P1 only. Tried to go up the original P2 as well, but after campusing around on the first few metres of climbing (and clipping the first 2 manky carrots) I was too pumped to keep locking off and stabbing for holds trying to figure out where the route went. P1 is short but greating climbing, and only "desperate" if you're short. A great warm-up.
	21	★★ The Mighty Quinn	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 16th Jun 2013
Really funky in a wicked position. Probably harder than 21 though. The opening roofy moves are campusy fun, and lead to thin and technical climbing. I made a dogs breakfast of the crux, but after 10min flailing around like an idiot, I got through it... Pumped senseless.
	21	★★ The Mighty Quinn	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tim Haasnoot	Wed 9th Oct 2013
Fun pumpy finish to DRR
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch)	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tim Haasnoot	Wed 9th Oct 2013
Thin slab climbing
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Tim Haasnoot	Wed 9th Oct 2013
Thought provoking.
	21	★ Catweazel	Trad 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Thu 14th Nov 2013
Packs a punch for 10m of climbing. Climbed at night with a headlamp as a "warm-down", but it got the blood going instead. Some great, tricky, thin arete moves in the top half.
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag - with Glenn Short, Pam Mort and Peta Caswell	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Craig Hitchcock	Sat 4th Jan 2014
Balancy, thin and a little techy. A treat for the feet! Totally fabulous! Should get more ascents.
	21	★★ Geezer Pleaser	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 18th Jan 2014
Harder, more sustained, and much better than I expected. Surprisingly good thin climbing with some tricky steepish sections. This climbs really well and in a great position.
	21	★ Urako	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	Average	Tim Haasnoot	Sat 19th Apr 2014
Poor anchor position.

	21	★★ Geezer Pleaser	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Tue 9th Dec 2014
The starts a bit contrived, but fun and then quite interesting to the top

An old tick that was never logged? Did with k man
	21	★★ Geezer Pleaser	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	Average	Rhys Phillips	Tue 16th Dec 2014
Went straight through the undercut at the start for some extra bouldery fun. It gets interesting in the middle there...
	22 21	★★ The Mighty Quinn	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Adam	Tue 6th Oct 2015
Cool moves going over the roof.

Absolute classic!

	21	★★ The Mighty Quinn	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Ro-boat	Wed 17th Feb 2016
Linked together with Dress Rehearsal Rag p1. 30ish meters of good climbing.
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch)	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Ro-boat	Wed 17th Feb 2016
Definitely a sand bag, but a fun one with a really unique "devil horns" hold.

Punchy little beast, haven't been this pumped on a 21 for a long time
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch) - with Andrew Stevenson	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Matt Short	Sun 13th Nov 2016
Not sure about the statement about it being desperate for 17. I found this fairly straight forward, just enough holds to make a great route.
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes - with Andrew Stevenson	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Matt Short	Sun 13th Nov 2016
Best route of the day, it has some great climbing and some thin sections but not where I thought they would be.

	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch)	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Phillip Booth	Sun 13th Aug 2017
Fun slabbing (although a little short to do just the one pitch). Didn't seem wildly off grade, there was one move at mid height where being longer most likely helped.
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Phillip Booth	Sun 13th Aug 2017
Stellar climbing! Must do if you're down at Zig Zag. Solid slabbing with some classic committed moves. I can only imagine what it must have been like prior to the rebolt.
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch)	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Scott Parker	Sat 9th Dec 2017
Carrots. Very good foot-work and tiny crimpy holds!
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Hywel Rowlands	Mon 29th Jan 2018
Good climbing but gets crimpy and very reachy in places
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mike croker	Sun 23rd Sep 2018
hard move at 3rd bolt but it is very well protected, in fact, the whole climb is
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes - with Will Vidler	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Harry Kadi	Sun 11th Nov 2018
Cool little climb, super fun and just hard enough to have to properly switch on in the cruxy sections
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Nikhilesh Sharma	Sun 7th Apr 2019
For those who are interested to know about the original "Shakes and Flakes" before the rebolt: In Mikl's words, "It originally had just 2 bolts, the (new) 2nd and probably the 4th. Hence the shakes, the mantel was about a meter or 2 above the bolt, with a runout above, a bolt, a sling on the arete, and a few wires in horizontals to protect the finish."
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes - with Roni	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Sun 12th May 2019
Bloody nails!!! It would have been easier if I had better technique I guess, but I was absolutely desperate. Felt like my hardest onsight ever!!

The Big Friendly Sandbag! Hahahaha. But also lovely! (would help to be solid at 19).
	21	★★ The Mighty Quinn - with Justin Robinson	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Knox Low	Sun 1st Dec 2019
Excellent extension to dress rehearsal rag. It's not over till it's over. Powerful through roof but thin near the top.
	17 21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag (Dress Rehearsal Rag - 1st Pitch) - with Justin Robinson	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Knox Low	Sun 1st Dec 2019

absolute classic. Very well protected especially in the overhang.

Amazing balancey little number. Every time I placed a bolt plate it felt like I was having mild heart attack. Don’t bother with top pitches, MQ finish is way better.

	21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag - with Rod de Paiva	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Dan Brown	Sat 15th May 2021
Ran both pitch’s together. So good!
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes - with Rod de Paiva	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Dan Brown	Sat 15th May 2021
Probably the highlight of the day. A really nice bit of climbing, and kind of solid at the grade.

Super cool. Pity its not longer.
	21	★★ The Mighty Quinn	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Jason McCarthy	Sun 1st Aug 2021
Some terrible binary breaker bolt placements, threaded one with a sling. Didn't climb as good as it looks.
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Jason McCarthy	Sun 1st Aug 2021
Climbs heaps better than it looks from the ground. Might of been more memorable in the past if it had less bolts?
	21	★★ Dress Rehearsal Rag - with Jeh C	Sport 35m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	james ritchie	Sat 30th Oct 2021
More like 18/19
	21	★★★ Shakes and Flakes	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Maxwell Cullen	Sun 31st Oct 2021
Superb and varied, slightly marred by some suspect rock.

Thing with LRS is you have to climb stuff twice - which turned out to be a pleasure on this awesome little slab!
