It'll be interesting to see if the Irish exiles can provide a better atmosphere than at Lansdowne.Although it wouldn't be hard.It seems were all in the north so shall we make it a bit of singing end?south terrace on tour anyone?
<insert witty remark>
South Terrace on Tour then it is !
Has to be a better atmosphere than lansdowne once we sing anything more than fields of athenry or ole ole once we are sorted !
Looking forward to it now massive **** up see the sights of london !
Anyone know any good indie clubs in london ?
More of a house/techno man meself, but I'll ask around and see what I can find out for you. There's bound to be plenty of stuff going on. I presume it's the Saturday night you'll be wanting to make shapes?Originally Posted by only1kilbane

Camden is the place for Indie. Never had a bad night in the Monarch on Chalk Farm Road. If you want a bizarre live music/nightclub Irish-antipodean buzz then The Swan in Stockwell is the place to go but i would say that as living in the 'Well i'm biased towards this kip. That said if you're only in London for a weekend I'd steer clear of both joints. I ain't going to be working for lonely planet anytime soon with that kind of advice!
Here's a link for finding clubs in London: http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/dance.asp. I'm more into my house so not too sure of indie clubs. If you're still up on Sunday morning at 12 I advise the Church in Kentish Town for a bit of fun with the Aussie's and Kiwis. A bit messy but good fun none the less.
Cheers for that lads much appreciated ! Love the indie chicks me ! Yeah i heard camden was the place to go. My mate was over last year and went to the camden palace said it was deadly but might be closed now ? Cheers for the tips will have a look at that sight now !
It is. Bloody good thing too. I used to go there for a hard house night called Peach. It had quite possibly the rudest doormen in history. Despite the fact that house clubbers are noted for their friendliness, you'd nearly get beaten up going in the place by the bouncers. And I useta be on the VIP list.

As Bowsey said Camden is more or less the place with the monarch and the barfly on chalk farm road, also the garage on highbury corner across the road from highbury and islington tube station, good front bar with a cracking duke box in there, (can't go there meself mind,due to me telling a doorman a few home truth's about himself the other week). Get a copy of the NME before yer come over, that'll tell yer all the club night's in London.
Its crazy to see people be what society wants them to be but not me.
Is The Electric Ballroom in Camden?, had a few decent nights in there when I was living down south, Indie type of place, Stone roses man ya can't beat em!!!!
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

Junior how's the form, electric ballroom is still going,think it play's a bit of every thing these day's, don't know if it's fri or sat night's that the place is taken over by Maralyn Manson look a like's, proberly be a few of them with green shirt's on with eircom on under them black trench coat's that weekend.
We'll have the Bristol ''Irish'' rover's staying with us in various safe house's in north London around the game's so if yer on for a few jar's after the match's, we'll be around Wood Green or the Archway.

Careful now. You turn up on Goth night and you might get a little more than you bargained for!!Is The Electric Ballroom in Camden?, had a few decent nights in there when I was living down south, Indie type of place, Stone roses man ya can't beat em!!!!
Quality pub in Camden is my old local the Lock Tavern on Chalk Farm Road. Great beer garden and terrace as long as you can tolerate many a mulleted, crazy t-shirted, suit jacket jeans-ed, creative north London trendy knocking about.
In Camden. The Palace, The Monarch(Barfly), Colour, Electric Ballroom all worth a visit, but for the love of god avoid the Underworld like the plague(which is quite likely to still be bubonicking around that gin joint somewhere!)
I'm grand, Sylv, not sure if Im heading down for the game yet as I'd volunteered to play in a Celtic Supporters 5-a-side tournament in Halifax that weekend, though I've heard **** all about it recently, so if not, it would be a pleasure to meet up for a few swallies.......

So Does anyone know if the Electric Ballroom on the Sat night is indie night or goth night dont fancy a load of headbangers !!
Pretty sure Goths are on a Friday but also think saturday is a bit of an 80s buzz these days.
Ballroom has a new more indie night on a Friday night, much to Mrs O' Banton's annoyance as this means no more shaking her booty to the Sisters of Mercy, there is different music on different floors this is £7 to get into after 12pm. On Saturday it seems House garage and Disco funk and is a tenner to get in.
The Underworld next to the Worlds End is probably a better bet on Saturday for indie music although I have not been there in years.
Last time I was in the Garage they'd changes to a thrash metal night but I don't think that this was going down to well so they were thinking of changing it back to Indie night.
Where am I now? I'm over here,
I've got those empty pockets and I can't afford a beer.
