Has anyone been since it reopened? I went the weekend before last and didn't notice much difference. It's the first time I've not had my balls felt during the search, like a dog a crufts, so if anything it was less invasive than usual! The new sound system in room two is incredible, you can...

I suspect everyone's read the blog from a couple of days ago but if you haven't it's a very good read. There's a link to the document that went to the House of Lords in the last section which is also worth a look, it's good to see they haven't just walked away from that side of it. Hopefully at...

Hopefully this won't affect their attempt to change the licensing process, otherwise what's to stop it happening again :shrug:

Totally agree, if Islington council and the met are even considering this then it's safe to say they're going to lose in court. The hearing is less than two weeks away, I hope they see it through to the end.

Has anyone watched the debate on boiler room? I've just watched the first hour and it's fascinating stuff. The Amsterdam night time mayor is quite an impressive chap, and I think Emily Thornberry is coming across very well...

I can't think of any other parallels to this situation, I think people realise this is a tipping point for music culture in London and the UK. Fabric is still thriving and has been closed on flimsy evidence by a panel that's only one step better than a kangaroo court. You're right that other...

You could say that about any campaign. This decision is important to 1000s of people, at the moment it's more important to say that we didn't let it die without a fight. I've donated what I can afford, that will never be a waste because I know I've contributed.

Brilliant post from Colossal Squid :thumbsup: They've launched a donations page to help the legal battle, £30 gets you a t-shirt. http://www.fabriclondon.com/save-culture *edit* Looks like people are getting behind this already - It jumped from £14k to £17k in the time it took me to post this!

I've just been reading about the Islington council licensing sub-committee that made the decision. It's made up of three people who vote and the decision wasn't unanimous. It's bonkers that something this culturally significant doesn't get "called in" to a higher level in order to look at the...

As much as I love a lengthy discussion about the price of cocaine, it usually only happens late at night after a few lin................. You get the idea, please we can steer this back on topic...

Cable was a brilliant club, I always thought the sound in the main room was a bit like Fabric where you're not just listening to it - it completely envelops you!

Sampled from a 90s hip hop track, and used in a different context!!

I'm still tying to digest it all to be honest, I think part of me hopes there will be an appeal and it'll get overturned, however unlikely that is. One thing is for sure, nothing is going to replace Fabric on the London music scene. Whatever you thought of the club, you have to admire that...

I also don't believe this, absolute troll. Nobody who's into the clubbing scene, whatever their favoured genre, would use the language you've used. "People very ill", who says that!!! As has been said, security are walking past the seats/beds outside room two every 5 minutes at most, no way are...

I should've said with the exception of that point! Obviously most people are twatted, but no more than any other dance music club.

I've been many times and never seen any of that. A sad day for club culture, but probably inevitable Islington council have been after Fabric for a while now, the drugs is just an excuse. I was due to go again at the end of the month, I've always loved room 2 and never seen anything other...
