    just in case anyone's thinking along those lines...

    you'd have to entirely rebuild the false floor in the main cinema before they'd give you a license to have people dancing on it, and strip all the other floors back to the concrete and start again.

    doable if you've got a million+ to throw at it, not if you haven't - defo not doable for a one off as we found to our cost a few years back with the first av festival.

    it would be a mint venue though:cool2:

    Why were there people in Northumberland Street today handing out Shindig & Evolve flyers? Still advertised for Digital.

    Newcastle's gay community must be getting pissed off that their part of town is getting overrun by charvers and beer boys

    Mighty pissed off I would imagine. It was bad enough when Digital opened, even with decent nights on. If it turns into another Ikon the gay scene will be in big trouble.

    Wow, what a turn up for the books.

    Quite fitting with all the people starting to say the crowd has been horrible and them not enjoying themselves, and now this!

    I wonder what will happen next - Shindig seems like too big a night for any other club than digital no? Ditto for evolve and the like.

    This could be very good for the smaller nights, with potentially hundreds and hundreds of clubbers looking for a place to go on a friday, and their usual nights being too full to accomodate them etc etc.
