It feels so close to Summer the party has already started @ The Venue

Good luck Tim. Public preception and being a responsible community citizen will be the key to your success. Fail in this area and you are doomed. Employ communicators not bone heads for your security.

ps. clean up outside after every big night.

V twin venom fair comment. There is a bit of history to it though. My partner and I are software developers :-} We started out with a third partner who had years of industry experience, he obviously was going to manage the place while we ran entertainment, publicity etc.
Unfortunately for whatever reasons he ended up running us into debt and walked out on us (obviously this is a much longer and less single sided story, there were problems from all camps)

However this left two software engineers all of a sudden running a 1000sq meter bar/nightclub/pool hall/ live music venue. We went through a series of managers we hired but repeatedly had problems. We are striving to do things better everyday, we have learnt alot very quickly and are still learning. Coming from 20 years experience you would fully appreciate just how much there is to know.

I am not looking for pity, forgivness or even understanding 😉 Just want you guys to all know we are doing the best we can and aiming to improve. If you have any advice or critism I would gladly take it on board.

Cheers
Tim

Yep the problem should be fixed now. Our hosting company was hacked via an Apache vunerability. Had to clean all the files 3 or 4 times before they would belive me and update their servers.

Hope the virus didn’t cause too many problems.

Hey Venue – I’ve visited once for a gig and it was v good setup for bands. BUT last time I typed in your web address, I noticed my computer took me there via 2 other websites which gave me viruses on the way! Hope this is fixed?

I’m with hingo, who gives a rats. I have been to the shops under and around this hole on a Saturday morning and it’s a crap. Broken glass, vomit, blood and puddles of only God known what all over the place. I have 20 years in the pub/club game behind me and the way this place seems to be run is a joke.Do these people pay to post thier own testimonials?

hingo_VRCalaisV6 you would be suprised ;-}

Fear not we are still commited to supporting live original music, local comics, family sessions and all the funky stuff that doesn’t necessarily make money.

But we also started in this business to provide entertainment, and a nice place to go for people in the south. This latest promotion embraces this resposibility we have taken on, gives a large portion of the South what they want, and is giving back to our regulars who have made it possible for us to still be here.

Plus is a good way for everyone to get ready for the summer season, you should always strech before running you know ;-} and if you eat always wait an hour before attempting a wet shoe shuffle.

As an aside speaking of wet shoe shuffling, a good mate of mine DJ Cynan(UK) is visiting from Oxford. He is lovely, talented, environmentally and socially minded and always up for a chat. He will be having a turn on the decks sometime on Saturday night(1am or so)

Check out a podcast of some of his stuff

Forget Charny, Erindale is bogan central.

Oh come on. What person in their right mind would not want RNB and cheaper Cruisers 😉

YAY FOR SUMMER!
