Bone Orchard anyone?

Think I saw them support Playdead at Xtreem club. Thanks to other posters for reminding me of the venue.

Used to go to the Alambra a lot . Sundays seemed to be The Piranhas and Nicky and the Dots . Underneath the Alambra was The Inn Place. Every Thursday was The Tangerine Temple. Cost £1 and a penny and played late sixties psychedelia. Great times.
Xtreems / New Regent at the bottom of West Street as well.Saw Sham 69 in there as well as Siouxie and the Banshees. The 80's saw a load of hard core punk and oi oi bands.

New Regent was brilliant. Long thin wine bar (ish) venue down West Street on the left if memory serves. Anyone remember seeing the splendid (non-local) YACHTS there?

Saw the excellent Secret Affair in there

It was a great venue.Home of punk and post punk bands.Anything from Secret Affair, Sex Gang Children, Alien Sex Fiend, King Kurt, The Exploited, The Addicts, Blitz.I even remember them decking it in cobwebs and turning it into The Batcave club for a night.Is it me , or did it all seem to happen on a Tuesday night?
