nullmouse Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Elizium's been upsetting goths for many years - We have a website, too, at ELIZIUM | NM4NPNext Elizium is Saturday the 3rd of May, The Tunnels, 11pm till 3am.There's playlists up so you can see how much we're likely to fit your needs, but I'd say we veer more towards industrial and electronics than eyeliner and batcapes.

Norseman Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Always Moorings as well and Moshulu still do rock/metal on Saturday nights in the back room as well. The Black Tooth nights are good and I am about to find out what the RGU metal nights are like after tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairyScaryMark Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 O'Neils used to have a rock/metal night. Dunno if they do it anymore.I am fairly sure they don't becuase I tried to go to it.They had a fairly good cheesey/varied rock night on mondays that was busy enough when I went, i assume attedence decreased as it is not on the go anymore. They also had a rock/metal night on tuesdays which I only went to once and it was very quiet, unfortuatnly.Pity these things usually get put on during the week as a lot more people could go otherwise.I remember there was a rock/metal night in Metro a couple of years a go but I only heard about it after it had stopped running.Also. I was not aware this Elizium night existed until this post. I think I know people who may be interested in that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 i remember Elizium at Dr Drakes being one of our busier nights...Really? Maybe I'm getting mixed up. At that point I lived like 100 yards away from Drakes so understandably I had a LOT of drunken nights in there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullmouse Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I haven't been to Elizium since it was in Drakes and nobody ever went.Yup, you're sorely mistaken. Elizium was always heavin' at Dr Drakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash@TMB Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 If you like more trad goth then Supernaut is every 3rd Friday of the month at The Moorings Bar from 8pm - 1am.It's been going something like 3 years now and is always well attended. Admission is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bifta23 Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 probably valhella i'd recommend elizium, and i'm not even a goth.i remember being at the last ever valhella - was a fine night:up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framheim Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 i remember being at the last ever valhella - was a fine night:up:twas indeed. wish i could remember half of those nights. we had a few really good ones but on the whole they were pretty dead. we always had a head start if there were heavier bands on before us but most weeks it just didn't work out for us and this was at a time when there was supposedly a good rock, punk and metal scene in aberdeen but folk preferred going to moshulu to dance to the same songs every week than try something different. bah.folk complain about places not playing proper heavy music but then when you do run a club playing not just the heaviest music around but a good mix of fun, out there and downright danceable kick ass tunes somehow it just does'nt pull the punters. admittedly promotion could've been better but i think generally people just like to go where their mates are and usually that's the bigger clubs playing more mainstream music. i wonder if i still have the doom of valhella audio piece i made for the last one somewhere. i have the flag kicking about my flat somewhere, and of course the doomstick.

hobgoth Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Goths do still existI would second, and Third Elizium.It is Aberdeens longest runing goth night ( over 10 years on & off) . and always a good attendance. the special internet radio shows are a hoot and the occasional Elusive Exclusive night is always interesting - so yeah check out the playlists and come along .and it even has a LAZER!!! ( provided we remember to take it to them)Goths dont dissappear, they just blend into the background..or move out into the sticks like us...us goth naw... but we do run the following websites ! www.the-hearse.com WWW.SPOOKYTOY.COM ( free pimpage ahoy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
