i think you'll definitely be seeing more parties there once it has been re-vamped.

Yeah I'm sure you're right but we won't have that wonderful space anymore, just another club. We really needed another Room:

I'm probably being a bit harsh but Qbh is a pretty special venue and the only thing that comes near in size is Metro where you have the condension of everyone's sweat falling on you

As pkc said you go anywhere for the right tunes but the right venue can be the difference between a good night and a great night. I wonder if anyone has looked at the ballroom above Flinders St station as a possible venue?

The guv in Toronto is great, nice big space but without the 'big room' feel (in a bad way I mean).

Fabric in London is stunning. Other suggestions include The End, Turnmills and The Egg.

I've only been to The End and Turnmills. The End [Steve Lawler] has that lovely dark and dingy feel for me, and I really liked Turnmills [Satoshi] as well, but neither of them have that really good big room feel!!

The Family in Brisbane is a pretty awesome venue.

I heard from a fairly reliable source, Future have bought it. It will be renovated with a new upper floor being put in. This upper floor will be a club ran by Future and the bottom will be used for corporate events. Good sense business wise but very sad for us.

Trance Nation at Easter will be the last time we see it as a superclub

drinking, but alcohol costs a shitload in singapore.

i spent approx. $50 AUD in MOS for a jug of vodka and cranberry. I watched the bartender pour four shots of vodka into the jug and that was it! Also ordered two c0cksucking cowboys for $14 SGD each. Watta rort!

My suggestion - buy alcohol duty free at the airport and drink up before hitting the town. If you must drink on a budget then stick to the beer.

That brings a tear to my eye.

Agreed, not been to The Egg but the other 3 are my favourite London clubs.

The End and Turnmills usually have an amazing atmosphere - munt noots everywhere Crowd in Fabric can get a bit wanky at times but for a venue it takes some beating - speakers UNDER the dance floor so it turns into one giant vibrating bass bin. Watched X-Press2 getting filthy beyond belief in there a few years back which was one of the maddest experiences ever

The only club I have been to on your list is the Guvernment in Toronto, and I thought it was unbelieveable, but have never been to any other large clubs so can't really compare.
Next one on the list is Home, Sydney.
