Not good...

[mrph]

Edward's No. 8 caught fire last night.

Sounds like that might be the end of the place, from the BBC description. :-/

I know a few people reading this were there last night - I've already seen one post about stuff left in a cloakroom and then lost in the fire. Looks like everyone there got out ok, though, which is the important bit.

Yeah. :-/

I haven't been there for a year or more, but... had a lot of memories of that place. Mostly good ones.

[Would have been going back there for the Cruxshadows in three weeks, too. I wonder if the promoters have heard yet? :-/]

well I have now, thanks to you. Glad it's not my worry to sort out !!! Thank goodness no one was hurt! It's a while since we were there but I can recall a couple of good nights out there long ago.

I emailed Rob when i got back to HoG, although it seems to be worse than i thought at the time.
I hope he can sort something out but it seems unlikely with such short notice. :o(

Rock is dead.

In Birmingham, anyway. *has a little sniffle*

A lotta lotta good times were had in that filthy hellhole over the last 20 years.
