Ive been going to the 'Keller' for about 3 years on and off..
Its a great venue if you like to hear music that isn't the norm, isn't played on radio 1 and isn't liked by the masses!
You can request whatever you want but don't expect it to be played, they tend to play the same songs with a few variations here and there. But by all means don't let that fool you, its a friendly, loud atmosphere with and awesome sense of safety (not in danger of fights and trouble in general).
Yes its dingy, yes the toilets are a bit pants and it can get quite messy by the end of the night but in a strange way that's how we like it, rough around the edges!!
I will say that the people in attendance has changed from the social outcasts to a more 'common' crowd (as bands like paramore and bullet for my valentine become mainstream), lending a slightly tense atmosphere sometimes when you get a bunch of drunk students on the dancefloor at the same time as rowdy metalheads and they are playing something really heavy!
but apart from that its pretty good!
oops forgot to change the stars!
One of the most amazing clubs I've ever been to :)
You are guaranteed a night that's fight free, where you aren't going to get groped by sleazy blokes when you walk past, good music, awesome people, cheap booze :) it's all good :)
If you like heavy metal the night to go is PHUCT on a Friday 9-3 :) The DJs are lovely, they listen to what you want to be played, the bouncers are cheeky but you know you're in good hands with them!
The people are accepting of any and everyone! no matter your size, race, how you dress etc no-one is going to judge you, we love everyone! Never any fights either, because its like a little community and we all know eachother!
Booze isn't much but its well priced, free shot with every drink (unless you make it a double) £3 a drink odd is pretty damn good i think! And decor isnt much to shout about either but we have a little dingy cave look going on and it suits us :)
Anywho, as you can see I love it, i've been going there years and will do as long as I can :) so if you arent stuck up and snobby, you love metal, cool people and an amazing atmosphere then get your butts down there and come say hi :)
The biggest pile of sh*te I have ever had the mis-fortune to go to for a night out. Had some friends from around the country down for the weekend & I was left extremely embarrassed having taken them to this stinky, cheap, pi*s poor beer hell hole of a place. Never again even if it was the last pub on planet earth!!
You walk in through the doors and climb up a massive flight of stairs, which you know you are going to fall down at the end of the night after one too many of the free shots they supply with every drink.
As you enter there are 2 bars, tables and chairs and unfortunately a small dancefloor, which gets too crowded at times.
The DJ is on the stage and occasionally, the massive dancing cage is around, as well as poles to show off your skills!!
Each clubber gets a request sheet, where you write down 5 songs and if handed in early enough, they will get played.
The whole decor of the club is not amazing, and I have been to better, It is just a basic layout with blue walls and a wooden floor. A few lights here and there, massive speakers and a smoke machine.
Not to mention broken toilet doors etc. There are also pool tables, game machines and a cloakroom.
Unfortuantely this club does not come with its own smoking area, just go out of teh club and smoke on the street, but you get stamped so you do not have to pay again. What gets these stars is the awesome music for you heavy metallers, drink offers, people and the general atmosphere.
phuct on friday nights is one of the ultimate nights to go wild after a week in the office! a free shot with every drink, what more could you want eh!!
