(I own it on 12", for some reason I shall attribute to the shit I accumulated during several years of hanging round the student paper cadging free stuff, so we can play it when we do this club which I really really want to do despite the great distances separating the half-dozen folk who might actually attend)

Nooooooooo!
This game is basically me trying to remember what they played in Spiders in 1991, even tho I was drunk for the entire year.
Do you still go there, though?
(I know someone who DJs there occasionally)

I remember playing upstairs in Potterrow in about 1992.

I can remember seeing Fenn and Velvet Crush upstairs at potterrow in late 1991 or 1992. I think i may have seen Dawson (or was it badgewearer) there too.

Right, we could really probably do this now, somewhere, in Edinburgh (or Glasgow), couldn't we? And people would go. Hurrah!
(though I'm still holding out for the festival)

I saw Fenn at Potterrow too in 1991 or 2. I saw Ballboy downstairs at Potterrow in about 1997 too, when they had a girl singer and Idlewild for that matter.
Roadrunner was good, beacause it was my music policy. It wasn't a student disco you bastards.

It plays indie. -- Matt DC (runmd...), October 4th, 2006.
There's more to it than this. Preferably mid-week (cos a lot of students go home to places like Kilmaurs on the weekend and it eliminates the workies) and a cheap beer promotion is pretty much essential. eg. In the era discussed above, a bottle of Becks for a quid would be appropriate.

(Strathclyde's good night was on a Thursday at Level 8, but it wasn't quite as good for some reason).
This is all a touch Glasgow-centric, sorry. Just redressing the balance from all those Edinburgh sorts up there.

By the way, the idea that student discos in the early 90's were all about Kill Yr Television and Touch Me I'm Sick is only MOSTLY true. Didn't any of you Glasgow types go to Wednesday Night Fever at (I think) the Cotton Club? A very silly disco night for students and tons of fun.

Treefell, given that there were only about 30 people there; who are you? Do I know you?
