| Pretty fabulous, actually, and certainly a welcome alternative to the Arena. Nicely mixed crowd, but thankfully not many teenies for a change. Great mixture of DJs playing everything from classic rock type stuff at the start of the night, through to trad and EBM/cyber. Something for everyone, and comes highly recommended. No bad press heard about it thus far. |

| Another DIY Night to the alt scene which is pretty great, I've heard good things about it but obviously I cant go as its on a Friday heh.
Congrats to the organisers for getting it off the ground, and note that its weekly now instead of bi-weekly as is lsited above, theres maps and such on their website.
PS odd comment from lorelei as i seem to recall a conversation held in the flat about the place...my how opinions change :D |

| Absolutely the best night out in Cleveland I've been to yet, even with cheesy 80's cock rock during the earlier hours and black metal for the later crowd. The eight track EBM rampage towards the end almost killed me though! Drink prices are great, and DJ's are open to suggestion.
Big thanks to Midnight Moon and Lorelei Chaos for showing me a good time. |

| Still a good night and a change for most of you going to the @rena. There is ocationally an issue with trendies invading although it seems to have it's good and bad weeks. The bar is good though and it's usually full of regulars who are all friendly enough to chat to randomly. |

| Good night was had, although a sudden influx of trendies did seem to spoil the night some what. Plus the place is a pain to find for a non stocktonian. Even more scarier was the fat "I shall survive" was playing quite loudly in the entrance hall. After venturing upstairs we did eventually find some good music. |
