yeah much better. still a bit shit to be honest. these flats are being torn down and redeveloped to be replaced with new flats. very little of the new flats will be affordable. theres lots of new luxury developments nearby as well. the area is still looking pretty run down though

Fabric's one of those places that always tempts me with lineups, but I've only ever been twice because it's too fucking expensive and it made me feel weirdly dirty both times.
The continued existence of Corsica Studios should be written into local bylaws. Best club in London!

btw first time I went to fabric (again, 2008, maybe 2009) it was fairly decent. last time (2012?) I had a decent night but all the 16y/o sitting on the stairs next to their passed-out mates hating their miserable lives were very off-putting. haven't been there ever since. their door policy could be a bit stricter, too many young folks who don't know their limits. tbf it was a friday with dj hype in room 1.

It's seriously fucked up to have dogs in a club really
Then again I've never been to a club in London. Is it a common sight to see people pass out
and shit? Coz I go to a lot of different places around here and I rarely ever see it.

Fire's an artikal shit hole
Comparing that and Fabric makes you realise how decent Fabric actually is as a club, despite the propensity for wanker punters
Much better sound + organisation, plus as busy as it gets in there i've never felt like its so busy its
dangerous as i have in Fire (hoping the crowd surges you to the bar because they've sold 300+ more tickets than can humanely fit in the rave + your feet cant touch the floor cus theres so many man)

I quite like Fire; I'd definitely go there over Fabric.
