Wednesday nights have found a new home in the Zu Bar (formerly Scruples/ Vanilla Lounge/ Zinc etc) on Rhyl Promenade. The opening night is set for Wednesday, September 10 and the line up for that one should be finalised by tomorrow. The set up is going to be slightly different from the past in the sense that I'm going to have less scope for throwing untried and untested bands in at the deep end as the venue's management are insisting on top quality acts only (no Green Minge moments, I'm afraid!!!). Other than that, it's going to be very much the same as before with three live acts on on most nights and the DJ playlist encompassing rock, indie, metal, punk, emo, Australian sheep-shearing shanties and anything else you want to hear. More details will be posted up shortly at www.myspace.com/zubands as well as on here (of course!!!).

Sounds promising Steve - is there a house PA and stage - lights even?

Yeah, there's a house PA and lighting - the stage is low (a raised dancefloor area in reality) but has sufficient depth, plenty of width and a storage area for spare gear. The area in front of where the band is performing is also going to be railed off so that over exhuberant moshing doesn't interfere with those whose primary exertion involves the intake of large amounts of fortified lemonade and there's plenty of space for bands to set up merch stalls etc.

Sounds good, I have missed the Wednesdays, since Billys fucked it all up - the idea was superb and the set up even better, but it was destined to fall because of the cost implications - if they have a house PA they own, you're (or we're) laughing... For all it's lower intestined acoustics I do miss those heady nights in the pre-refurb Blu - they were good times. Let's hope Zu is a success, and let's support Steve's new venture for the good of our entertainment and for the future of our music scene.
