The Hit List

The Curse of The Zoo

Establishments we've managed to put out of business (and stuff)

Gig Venue (Musician talk for pub, ye know) Fate
Feb '90 Clyde Cavern, Glasgow Closed
Jun '90 Clubhouse, Paisley Closed
Jun '91 Mary's 21st Party She moved
Aug '91 The Swee, Girvan Closed
Oct '91 Rooftops, Glasgow Closed
Jan '92 The Maltman, Glasgow Closed
May '93 Pythagoras, Glasgow Cancelled us, closed anyway
Jun '93 Minstrels, Glasgow Closed (no big shame)
Aug '93 Phoenix, Edinburgh Closed
Aug '93 Legends, Edinburgh Seriously refurbished
Aug '93 13th Note, Glasgow Moved premises

These were managed by The Paisley Underground/The Tombstones/The Zoo. We're pretty sure that we managed the Drum and Monkey (Glasgow) too but can't remember when. We're also pretty sure that the Paisley Arts Centre (although we'd welcome confirmation of this) and Nice 'n' Sleazies (Glasgow) have survived.

Boooooww! UPDATE: On a recent chinwag in Glasgow (June 2004), The Lovemuscle ("vocalist" of The Barney Rubble Blues Band) reminded us of the following casualties of The Barney Rubble Blues Band and The Plastic Fantastic Lobster:

Dec '86 Scampi's Niteclub, Girvan Closed soon after
Oct '87 Beach Pavillion, Girvan Now being demolished
