  1. The Black Tooth requires PR staff for not only postering and flyering duties, but to help spread the Black Tooth gospel amongst like-minded souls. The hours are a mix of daytime and Monday evenings. You will ideally be aware of the Black Tooth and it's charitable work towards the rock fraternity. You will also have a bit of a charming gob on you, and a liking for working alongside the general public. With that in mind, you'll also need patience for working alongside the afore-mentioned general public. You'll know your emos from your goths, your punks from your grungers and your metalheads from your [insert other sub-genre here]. You will be paid a competitive hourly rate (with bonuses), 10% off bar prices and free entry to all Black Tooth/Snafu events. If this sounds interesting or, at the very least, worth a bash then give us a shout at Black Tooth HQ: gomes@clubsnafu.com

  8. Nah, a trade night is for anyone who works in the bar/restaurant/club industry. Everyone's welcome of course, but so many staff round places in Aberdeen have worked together previously that this is a good chance to catch up with old friends. Tonight's looking to be a good one, in which case we'll look at doing this 3 or 4 times a year. The final count for the mixology competition is 11, with entrants from: Dusk, Ninety-Nine, Tonik, Paramount, Snafu, Bruach (Dundee), Basement, Moshulu and Soul, as well as a couple of non-tied competitors.
  9. ...for our first ever EMPLOYEES ONLY trade night. Don't worry if you don't work in the bar/restaurant/club industry - all are welcome. doors at 11pm // free entry
  10. That wasn't a dig at you! We're looking at solving the layout problems this summer with a mini-refit that's going to hopefully solve some of the traffic-flow issues. We'll keep everyone updated.
  11. Thanks for the support LB! Constructive feedback is always welcome, but everyone knows that if you post on online forums you have to put up with the lame minority who (from the comfort of their bedrooms/work desks) use the boards as an excuse to rile other users. That's just life!
  12. Those coming down after the gig might catch a small bit of it, so I would recommend making the effort. Plus, there's going to be tassles on sale!
  13. This is tonight. Doors open at 9pm, please arrive early.
  14. Closing date for cocktail competition applications is this Wednesday...
  15. You should head down for 9pm this Sunday as we're hosting a Havana Club cocktail competition featuring pretty much the best mixologists in town. Bars like 99 and Dusk will have entrants, and we'll have our own Brett Murray competing also.
  16. A couple of the guys are into flairing but as a general rule, they do this in their own time. Nothing worse than a full bar waiting to get served and bar staff are flipping bottles over their shoulders. Not knocking it, it's just not what we're about.
  17. Wow, I love it when threads get hijacked and everyone turns on each other! Well, back to the point. The term "mixologist" is applied to someone who has a creative talent in making cocktails and sussing out which ingredients go best together. A mixologist and a bartender are as different as a chef and a microwave technician! We're not being pretentious in advertising a mixologist role. Anyone who comes to Snafu knows that we take cocktails quite serious and you need to know more than how to pour a pint to get through the average busy night here. However, feel free to disagree and start ripping the fuck out of each other again...
  18. If you need to ask, then you possibly don't fit the bill! We're interested in everything - grades (maths, english, etc.), other experience, hobbies, part-time courses, current university course. It's not just about picking up a glass and washing it.
  19. Hey man, check out the thread in this forum entitled "Bar / Restaurant / Club :: Trade Night :: 18 May". Contact details are the e-flyer. What venue are you representing?
  20. We are looking to add the following to our team: P/T or F/T Bar Supervisor Required Snafu are looking for a Bar Supervisor to join our progressive and forward-thinking team. Having just been awarded Theme Magazines Late Night Bar 2008 (Scotland), we require a creative and ambitious individual to share a workload that incorporates everything from the usual administration to designing new cocktail menus and training staff. You will ideally have at least 6 months experience in a similar role, a good knowledge of cocktails and preparation methods, awareness of market/product trends and the ability to lead a team by example. Personally, you will have good banter, a liking for rum (not essential, but come on, how can you not like it??), confidence (or arrogance?) that your Mojito is the best and, lastly (but very important), a good work ethic. The rate of pay, although competitive, will only be disclosed in the interview stages. Please apply in writing, attaching a CV, to Adrian Gomes (GM): gomes@clubsnafu.com P/T Bar Staff & Mixologists As it says on the tin, ideally you will have experience in cocktails and at least 1 year working behind a bar (i.e. you know how to pull a pint efficiently and know that lime not lemon goes in a gin and tonic!). P/T Glass Collectors For those without bar experience, looking to learn - you need to begin somewhere! Please apply in writing, attaching a CV, to Adrian Gomes (GM): gomes@clubsnafu.com
  21. Check out the Steve Bug mix cd free with this month's Mixmag...
  22. Appearing at the Black Tooth this Monday are: Jackie Treehorn Evil Demon Theory Half Jack Doors open at 9pm, first band onstage 9.30pm. Fudge DJ's til 2am. Up next week: Daiquiri Dusk (Live Burlesque) ***Free passes to all gigs available from bands and The Moorings***
  23. How much should we charge for that one? Or should we pay people to drink it? It could be one of the booby prizes in the quiz - "congrats for being the dumbest team, here's a pint of Brian and Craig's piss, along with 4 straws!".
  24. For more info, please email gomes@clubsnafu.com
