While I welcome any attempt to invest and open something new in Hull, I'm pretty sure someone spent millions on Tower only about 5 years ago, launched with loads of fanfare and then closed abrubtely...and the economy is in a far worse state now than it was then.

While the economy is limiting the numbers who go out, I've always thought that transport lets Hull down on a night out. Other cities I've been out in there seems to be loads of taxi's, night-buses and trains. But if you try and go anywhere in Hull after 9pm your stuck with the 'He's just around the corner love' minicabs that are either late or don't turn up at all, or worse your stuck in the 3mile long black cab queue. No wonder people choose to stay at home or stay in their local.

It's full of 14 year olds with photoshopped passport print outs. I found it a bit weird the couple of times I went but each to their own.

The only thing wrong with spiders (when I used to go ) was the old b@stard bouncer who would let you in one week and refuse you entry the next.

Good old tower night club , mmmmm spent many a night sticking to the floor . Also spent many a night in their feeding the pony

The place is a cramped smelly dive full of kids, I agree. It's a shame because I like the music!

If they relocated into town, I reckon they'd be quite successful.

I've always been amazed that Walkabout haven't ever attempted to open in Hull. Reckon it'd do really well in the Old Town or George Street.

Where was that?

Good call on the other 3 though.

Not enough Aussies to staff it.

Plenty over East Hull way.

I used to have that problem at spiders, John Taylor, ex rovers and great britain player, in the 80's i used to think he had a personal vendetta against me till i found out he did this on a regular basis to people he didn't like the look of, funny enough i never had the same trouble getting in henry's or ocean 11 (if i was feeling really brave!! ha ha!!).

Yeah my mate had these issues as well. To be honest, I'd probably have gone to Spiders more than I had done over the years had we not felt it was a lottery getting in. I can't stand bouncers that are like that and now refuse to go to places that turn me or my friends away without offering a reason.

I don't know how old various posters are, but does anyone remember an era when you couldn't get into clubs because you were wearing jeans?

Yeah, I aren't [ithat[/i old! We're in the era where most places let you in in trainers!
