It's a joke.

They are encouraging stag parties but in the "club rules" it asks that you don't drink too much or turn up drunk.

Some stagger that would be.

It would be comedy if everyone just turned up in "civvies" as if it was a Drake's night!

"'Far's Karloff!"

I think we really should. Maybe we should arrange a night... or just do it every Thursday... or every night.

Simple solution...burn it down.
If it can't be used for gigs then no one can have it!

It was a gay bar before it was Drakes.

No - it was owned by the same guy that had Campbells of Torry. But he would appear to have sold it.

But it would not surprise me if O'Henry's had bought it and was running the strip bar.
