I think quite the opposite - wouldn't you say that perhaps the reason it's shutting down is due to a upsurge of decent venues in Aberdeen? ie Tunnels and Moshulu? Two similar sized venues capable of attracting the same calibre of bands is bound to have taken a bite out of their profits, plus with Moorings and Drummonds having bands on eveynight, the days of just having Drakes and the Lemon Tree are well in the past. The kinds of gigs 'Shulu has been putting on in the last year or two have been shitting all over the LT.
