[QUOTE="brixtonite, post: 355733, member: 3206"] [b]Brixton venues n stuff[/b] Is right Alex - nice venue - normally not too hot either. Gday peeps... Jamii - you must have forgotten what we talked about earlier in Jan ;o) Aye, the Fridge is only a few mins walk down Brixton Hill from my place... capacity is well up to 1000+ It was refurbished late last year, but I've not been in there recently, so I can't tell you what the 'new decor' is like. It has a fair mo'fo of a main dancefloor, with side sections that they sometimes open - plenty of open plan walkways/stands around the floor, and easy access all round. They also have smaller rooms that are sometimes open - I've been some nights and only the main floor is going strong. Mainly hard house, and bouncy acid techno/trance nights. And be careful you don’t get mixed up with any Love Muscle nights. You wouldn’t be the only bloke there (if you know what I mean). Rarely any trouble in there - they have the Fridge Bar next door, which is patrolled by somewhat large local boys - nice, but tight security. Found some images for you> [url]http://www.mallo.co.uk/images/main/logic-3rd-birthday.jpg[/url] There's also the 414 Club on Coldharbour Lane (capacity a couple of hundred - very intimate, great atmosphere if people are on a good one), reknowned for being the latest club to open in London - they have a night that starts at 10pm Sunday, goes through to 6am Monday morning - you should see the place on a Bank Holiday weekend (I've been at Hazy's over the past few, so couldn't tell you what its been like of late). It can get a little weird on Sundays/Mondays as all the serious hardcore clubbers from around town go there when they should really be behind closed doors chilling out. An experience nonetheless. [url]www.club414ent.co.uk[/url] Also try the "George IV", which is worth the 5 mins walk up the Hill - its a pub thats been converted into a nice club - if the 414 is terrible, people will pile up to the George... they have a nice setup there - good security and smiley people. Alex - not sure about the estate you refer to bro, Brixton has plenty all around it... could be the block down Coldharbour Lane, opposite a small club called Medusa? (I believe the architect of the estate block killed him/herself as they could not believe how bad it looked and the levels of estate-crime it created). Brixton now consists of dj-bars and 'funky' gastro-pubs that serve up mixes of [yes, i hate that word 'funky' too... but you get the idea eh ;o) ] jazzy left of centre lounge house and soul/rare groove etc (for all the mullet/shaven haired advertising/meedja hacks that have moved in). Dogstar? Schmogstar... full of Hoorays from Clapham getting driven to the door by a black cab and then running inside lest they see a local brixton-dweller (we are soooo common you know).
