How about the valborne or shades, and don't tell anyone barons and that nightclub what is called sin city now can't think of the name, so many gone now, it's a shame honestly as they were a part of my night life back when I was young free and single
oh yeah been trying to think of it for hours lol loved the place was there mostly on a wednesday night, cracking night out with a whole bunch of mates, that was the time when pubs closed at 10.30, used to go down the sandfields and then into town and land up there or sloanes and sometimes into time. Oh and used to get into everywhere for free because where I worked
Now were talking, my weekend started on a Wednesday and The Top Rank/Mayfair radio 1 DJ night. Harpers on a Thursday 50p to get in and 50p a drink.Friday and a Saturday was Barons, used to get in for free, a mate was the DJ there. Happy days.
I was born and bred in the Sandfields and lived there for 28 years...so i had a good pub crawl before town and then it was another crawl around town...Griffin bar Hanbury Prince of Wales (Flares) and upstairs in The Park for a band and the Cardiff arms and as i'm more &0's than 80's i was usually out giging if not out on the lash
Yeah enjoyed the gigs , good bit of rock music were played back then, liked the place on wind street back then, can't remember the name of that place , it had a basement with live music and if I remember rightly boxing there as well, do you remember it ?
Jager, know the pub your on about can't remember the name either, saw a good group called Bommer there. Used to see a lot of gigs at The Dublin.
That place was called Subterranea recently but I think it's changed again now. Sin City was Casablanca for a bit too inbetween! I-ve heard good things about the Cardiff Arms re:music, shame it was a bit before my time! Sadly live music these days is either quality local bands who have no help from landlords, or **** covers bands. The landlords prefer the covers bands because it means they're playing safe... it's sad because I know of 7 or 8 top quality bands from the local area, who essentially just do it for the love of it. Respect to them.
Ha. First thing I had to do as moderator was delete one of my own posts. Stupid Spanish WIFI/double posting...
Think you might mean "The Coach and horses" or "The Coach" as it was known...played some good gigs there plus The Cardiff arms,The Dublin,The Adam and Eve and The Park...did a lot of gigs out of town too
Ah Scott, you have gone over to the dark side. Absolute power corrupts. I can tell just by the way you typed that post, that you have changed already.
The coach and horses was great some good bands there and sat afternoon in the cardiff arms, the pullman on a thurs then the valbone was good chalkies on oxford st snooker and a band the dopeys were there a lot. The cornish mount and Cavaliers by B.H.S. Iff to wrecked to get in anywhere down to dirty doras wild nights out !
I'm generally too chilled out to be corrupt! Anything more from that "Papa Shango" twat is getting deleted straight away though.
It sounds like you cannot wait for him to pop up, just so you can hit that button. Enjoy the moment when he does show! I hope that doesn't mean the end of your quality match threads buddy. Some Gooner needs to be shown exactly how it's done - a poor attempt has already popped up on the board.
I've already started typing it up, in fairness his is just a general banter thread I think, whereas I like to preview the game a bit more in-depth.
dont forget your home made boiled sweets at Collins at the Swansea Market anyone remember "A rendezvous for sportsmen, 2 minutes from the Vetch Field, 35 St Helens Rd - whats the name of the Diner??
