see you on the 23rd for surgeon and burgers.

[alsynthe]

surgeon and burgers! sounds good

[yeswehavetheright]

Alas I missed saturday due to a bbq + too much ale - soz about that...

Anyway, moving on, will surgeon be dining or will he bring a packed lunch?

[ampassasinbirmingham]

who was spreadfing rumours. thats totally out of order. it can make a night go broke? i really hope it wasnt other nights blundering darksides efforts.

[eyes without a face]

totally out of order that, if i were u guys id do some checking around altho i have no doubt u already have, and i think your number 1 suspects would have to be other techno nights in Leeds surely?

happened in Liverpool a while back with promoters putting cancelled posters over certain events, load of shite

glad it went well tho guys

[ds2]

not getting into it, we don't play those games.

i mentioned it purely so that those who believed the stories will know not to believe any other bullshit in future.

no more discussion about it please, it does no one any good in the long run.

[Katie]

deffo there for the bbq with bells on! haha! how could i miss surgeon or a bbq?! good work darkside! these events are a great idea! :lol:

[neko]

i'll be there for surgeon but not the bbq, gutted.
been bullied into working til 8 that nite :evil:

[Stella Boy]

the bbq didn't finish until 10:30 last month kitten so you may still get down in time.

The darkside site has been updated with details up coming summer parties along with a link to the darkside shop and all dj's & acts noted on the darkside website and forums are 100% confirmed.

[ds2]

The Darkside will no longer be held at either northern light or the velvet underground in leeds. The management at the venue are the most unprofessional / musically clueless group of people we have ever come across and we urge you all to never set foot in the place again. The venue has been nothing but trouble since we moved there last year with constant arguments over drinks prices, closing times, shoddy soundsystems (we had to hire our own after they spent £150k on a turd) and doormen who never once arrived early enough for us to open at the advertised time.

Last night was the final straw...

For the 3rd time in the space of a year they have double booked the venue on one of our dates. This weekend they’ve actually triple booked the club which totally beggars belief and has left us in the position of having paid for flyers, posters, bar-b-q accessories, a very sizeable dj bill still to pay and maybe the loss of future bookings with said performer.

Legal proceedings will commence on Monday morning.

Our next party on august 13th should still go ahead. News soon.

apologies to everyone this affects, especially the djs.
we will make it upto you at the new venue.

[ds2]

we nearly had a new venue for tomorrow but it's fallen through so we'll leave it now and stand the losses :cry:

our new venue is all but signed up for so lookout for an announcement on monday.

thanks for the support.

[ramshackles]

oh that is terrible

[Frank Dogshit]

shit news that,can imagine you lads are proper fuked off at the situation....

decent news on the new venue though,ill look forward to that!

[fitipaldi]

Any chance??? :lol:

http://www.merciacinema.org.uk/images/pav1.jpg

[ampassasinbirmingham]

im so sorry for you guys. All you ever do is put your back out and that club has ****ed you over time and time again. im pretty sure said artist will play for you again as he has mentioned how much he enjoys it. Him and dorris will understand.

I really cant stress how much i feel for you guys. Try not to let it get to you. im sure it wont. It was a good club, but it was never right for darkside from the onset, drinks prices etc.

good luck with finding a new venue.

[ds2]

Any chance??? :lol:

http://www.merciacinema.org.uk/images/pav1.jpg

zero

even if we had the money the local residents and council hated that club with a vengeance. it will never return in morley.

[Stella Boy]

i've spent many many nights stood outside that door totally confused wondering what the hell I'd just experienced.

Oh I do miss it sometimes :lol:

[The Divide]

Paul thats ****ing terrible news

Good luck on finding a new venue. You have put a lot of work into that night (loved the sound system btw) and I would hate to see it go

[Stella Boy]

New venue has been found divide, just need to cross the t's

[ds2]

it's back on. see topic above.

[The Divide]

Change the name of the thread to MOVED VENUE because it reads like its not on :doh:

[The Divide]
