fucking creased

No offense intended here to anyone that lives there...

But who's ever decision it was within TM Promotions to move from Tree's to ANY Venue in Sunderland must be fukin crackers! theres no clubbing community? it's never had one as far as im aware?

Maybe they'll tap into unfound territory who knows? but I think to move from Tree's in Yarm which is a pretty central location & perfect for events of it's kind, to a City which has NEVER been recognised as a place for Clubbing then someone aint fully done their homework.

I know the Point have had a few Cream nights on there, numbers wise or anything else im not too sure of? I cant really think of anywhere else they'd be able to make it work without it turning into a Chav fest every weekend?

I ana, i agree there i cant see sunderland working out. Maybe a few events would go down well but like u said there, chavs

so do TM deal with the goodgreef nights? aswell as the one offs like the swedes etc?

if its anywhere in sunderland my money is on privilege.

sunderland

i dont think wear fm could be classed as a clubbing community?

south shields clubbing has taken some battering over the years like , the best 4 nightclubs we ever had are either not here anymore or something else now :-

The Tunnel / Cellar Club is now a dentists
Images / Ikon is now an indian all you can eat / halal store
Oz is now a springs gym
Limelights is now just a car park

the clubs we have left are terrible, glitterball is like a bigger roxannes , roxannes goes without saying, dusk i cant get away with and vogue has mc's etc on now .........

I'm sure Keiron will be happy with that.....

True there m8. The only place i ever liked in shields was Eivissa, allow alot of the trance played there was commercial, was still a good night, fantastic club with so much potential, now it's sitting there empty with a for sale sign on, just wish sum fucker wud take it under there wing.

As for anywhere else in shields, it's all about the money. And dusk, havin people in from Big Brother etc, dunno what thats all about like

making what money it can from the gypos that live there?

Normally yes, but the money they pay for these BB celebs, surely they cant be makin much profit

how much do you think these "celebs" cost? when i worked at the club it was only £1500 for callum best, cant see a Big Bro wanna be being anymore than that??

Do the math, its £6 to get in, 250 people in would pay the fee, plus clubs make atleast £3 profit on every £3.30 bottle they sell!!

Agreed, I used to work in Shields and eivissa wasn't the best venue for music but the inside is a really nice space if it ever re-opened for one off parties. The only place in sunderland I could see TM moving would be the point and to be fair the sound rig is fairly decent with the dj booth really high up, other than that I also agree with a previous post here, Dusk nightclub in shields is wank as far as music policy but again a really niche venue if someone took it over for the one night.

I've never really liked tall trees as a venue.... there's been soooo many rumours for years regarding tall trees being closed due to complaints from residents in the hotel or it being flattened and converted into real estate / apartments / houses etc but I guess with the housing crunch those plans got put to one side.

And it's all light weights that go, about 50 in 250 people in there probly dont drink anymore than 2 bottles of wkd

True it is mint for space, has a really good layout, wudnt take that much to sort it up enuf for one offs. I dont think it wud take much anyway
