Title: soda Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 10:31:51 looked in there on saturday night early evening, thought it looked alright, was pondering wether to do a club night there.
questions 1. what are the normal clientel like 2.what are the door staff like 3.what is the reputation of it around town and in student circles. Title: soda Post by: janaage on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 10:36:35 Was there on last Saturday night Mex, and it was empty. There was about 6 of us and we must have doubled the attendance.
We got there at about 11 ish, and the night was over as far as that place was concerned. It's meant to be fairly busy from 8-10 cos it has good drinks offers on, but after that, it's a no-go. Title: soda Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 10:51:05 thinking of doing it one friday a month so would be something like this:
friday 25th feb HOLDUP! INDIE NIGHT WITH SPECIAL GUEST DJ SHAUN RYDER Friday 25th march HOLDUP! INDIE NIGHT with special Guest dj MANI Friday 29th april HOLDUP! INDIE NIGHT with special guest dj set BELLE AND SEBASTIAN ENTRY £6/5 NUS 10-2. DOWNSTAIRS INDIE, UPSTAIRS MOTOWN STAX NORTHERN SOUL AND SKA FFFFFRRRRREEESSSSHHHHHHHH. Title: soda Post by: Amir on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 10:57:16 Upstairs sounds pretty 8)

INDIE NIGHT with special guest dj set BELLE AND SEBASTIAN well hello there Title: soda Post by: yeo on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 11:37:27 Before it got done up it used to be called something else and was well dodgy and full of rough old drunk council estaters trying to shag each other.What was it called?
And no thats not my sort of place Dave. Title: soda Post by: janaage on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 11:39:46 It was called Vadams wasn't it? Much nicer a place now though. Although I never went in there before the refurb. They do a good bbq on Fridays in the summer.
Title: soda Post by: Piemonte on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 11:43:59 I've been there a few times and always thought its quite a cool chilled out club. Which proves the population of Swindon hqave no taste as its never been anything like full.
I'd go to the shaun Ryder / Mani nights if they happened. (Belle and spunkstain are a bit gay though) Title: soda Post by: janaage on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 11:46:43 I like it in there. Me and a few friends were in the spot, they called time so we thought where's a good place we can go to, have a late drink, in a nice place, MacKenzie's looked shit so we went for Soda. It was alright tbh.
Title: soda Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Thursday, January 13, 2005, 18:22:55 When it first reopened as soda it was quite popular. Ive been there a couple of times but its always dead now. I think it was more of an older persons place. Its so easy to make a place popular nowadays though.
Cheap drinks, variable music and dont let in pikeys. Ney problem. Title: soda Post by: McLovin on Friday, January 14, 2005, 09:30:02 It could work, as they need something to get people in there....
i know a lot of people who are desperate for an indie night of sorts to be a regular thing. Title: soda Post by: janaage on Friday, January 14, 2005, 09:32:03 Me and my mates want a place like that, the only non pop, dance club is Level 3 isn't it? And I've heard that not very good. We need an indie club to go and listen to some decent stuff!!
