Why is that, what are these design features? |

Also not sure if it is Night & Day but in manchester one venue has a massive pillar in the middle of the standing area and also a dog leg bend. Only been once and would try and avoid it at all costs again.'"
More than sure that's The Roadhouse.
A few fave venues over the years, as mentioned above The Star & Garter,Night & Day Café, Band On The Wall, The Ritz and The Wychwood in Ashton Under Lyne.
Worst has to be Academy 1 next door to Manchester Uni and Manchester Apollo before they had removable seats downstairs. |

I just checked which venue it was and it is actually the Ruby Lounge. |

I remember seeing Flux of pink Indians there during the miners strike benefit tour, and also remember The English dogs playing there to name a few. Great venue and great times. Jillys was also a great venue all them years ago. And not forgetting the Mayflower. Manchester has had and still got some great little venues. |

Ah the Poly another great venue, oh and another cracking venue was Drifters, christ you Manchester lot were are a bunch of jammy bar stewards.  |

I think I'm going to the Barbican in London in the summer. Has anyone been before? It looks different to the norm so was just curious.

Good to know thank you. Just booked tosee Tim Burgess and Lambchop there in June. Not really a massive fan of either but down for the weekend with a mate so just thought it's something to do relativley cheap. Should be good |
