-matthEw- Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Is it gone then? I was half-listening to Northsound news yesterday and I think I heard them say their license was revoked following that review.Anyone in the know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast Caz Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Good. It keeps all the braindead fuckwits fighting each other in one place and out of my way whilst I walk home. "varied police/ambulance calls outs just show it is a well managed venue". FUCK OFF! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Is anyone else of an age capable of remembering how quiet and reserved Belmont Street used to be every night? I remember when I first starting going into Aberdeen on weekend evenings, and Belmont Street was merely a thoroughfare.Now it's relatively difficult to walk from one end to the other without encountering binge-drinking pissheads who want nothing more than to scrap eachother. Which is actually fucking ace, given how entertaining that can actually be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not been to the top of Union Street on a Saturday night in ages but I'm guessing all the twats seem to have shifted down to the middle of town these days. Priory. Shithole.

Lemonade Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Meh. Priory is one of the few Aberdeen clubs that I can actually stomach. Generally you can go upstairs to the balcony bit, get a seat and pretty much mind your own business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Knob Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 They should turn Priory into an ECW style wrestling venue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I think Bob's probably right re. shiftage of nutters from Holburn end of Union St to Belmont St, which aids my walking home too, as less pools of blood need to be avoided on Holburn St (although there's a newish oilned type of place for folk in suits somewhere along Albyn Place).

HateEvent Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 They should turn Priory into an ECW style wrestling venue.Yes, but keeping only their current clientele, so that they can be thrown off the top balcony through a table and suchlike.

Had some absolutely hilarious nights out there before tbf. But it is an absolute shithole, you just gotta revel in it Me and a few mates did get 'jumped' there (at the Holland v Scotland game) for no apparent reason though, so I'd say its reputation as the most troublesome club is deserved.

Guest idol_wild Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I always thought it would make a great venue. I imagine it holds more than all the others and less than music hall.Aberdeen barely manages to fill the others for gigs, though. Aberdeen doesn't need a venue of that size.It needs good small-to-medium sized venues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I've only seen proper bovva a couple times in the Priory, one time my stupid mate turned up in a Rangers shirt and attracted the attention of a bunch of Aberdeen Casuals - conversation went a little like "I'm going to give you once last chance to put your jumper back on or I'm going upstairs to get the rest of my boys and we're going to kick fuck out of you" - "Go fuck yourself" - "RIGHT THAT'S IT!". Cue a bunch of rather scary looking neds piling down the stairs. My mate being a drunken idiot wouldn't move, I actually had to go and get the bouncers to throw my mate out and scarper sharpish before he got us all beat up, the fucking idiot.I know a lot of girls won't go in there due to the sheer number of sleazy dudes who are just in their trying to get laid. Any time they go up to the dance floor they are immediately surrounded by fellas grabbing them and "dancing" with them, ie. rubbing their crotch on them. Come on guys, does that approch ever work? A lass I know was in recently, she was dancing away with her pals and this guy danced up behind her and just shoved his hand down the front of her trousers and pants in one fell swoop. Right in about to the good stuff. That's sexual assault right there. I believe she chinned him for it, hopefully someone bigger and scarier did as well.

Cunts like that deserve to get their hands cut off. And, no, I'm not joking.I can't remember the last time I was in a place like Priory or Espionage. I had some good times in Priory when I was at uni, but generally on the bottom floor on a Wednesday night when there was no fucker there apart from us, and we used the drinks vouchers handed in to Schuh to have a hooring cheap night, and the DJ just played basically what we wanted. I never liked Priory ground floor, and never on a weekend night. And I basically never liked Espionage, just got dragged there a few times. Fuck, I even prefer Liquid or Tiger Tiger to those two shiteholes, not that I've been in either for a very long time.I can actually remember the time that Phil talks of before Priory existed, when you could just wander down Belmont Street with not that many people going about. It's just turned into a battle ground, and it's been like that for probably 7/8 years. Why it's taken until now to get those fuckers a written warning I'll never know. I've seen amazing battles outside Priory whilst waiting for my girlfriend outside to walk her home. The police were virtually on stand by just waiting for the next fight to erupt.My mate got smacked in the face outside there once as well. He was minding his own business, someone tapped him on the shoulder, when he turned round, he got leathered in the face, top of his lip split right open - as in a cut from his top lip right up to his nose - needed to be sewn back up. The police basically weren't interested when he told them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Do they still play Fatman Scoop every time you walk past? I used to not mind the priory. Haven't been in for years but used to be a good place to meet ok girls. A fair amount of stilletoed slagbags but enough decent 'i was dragged along' types. Never had any trouble there but seen a few rammies outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on guys, does that approch ever work?Everything works, but if the crotch rubbing doesn't work you may need to fall back upon a more traditional rapport and repartee that the girls in Priory find quite devilishly irresistible.

Soda Jerk Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Nights out are rubbish anyway. Get yourself a Sky subscription. There's plenty to watch. There's Champions League Handball on Eurosport a few times a week. Sussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's Champions League Handball on Eurosport a few times a week. Sussed.I tried this but it didn't work 'cos I just don;'t like sport and then my weekend nights were so empty. Then I realised how much whisky I could drink for the price of a night out and I stopped caring what the man was saying about where the ball was going and whose fault it was.Er, yeah but Priory... shithole.
