Was in Singapore two years ago. Managed to check out Zouk, Ministry of Sound, and Hed Kandi bars all in one Saturday night. Hed Kandi was more of a lounge, Ministry of Sound was half empty and smaller than the Guvernment. There was one interesting retro 70ties designed room, but they were playing retro 80-90 music. The main room was the same music as the Guvernment on a Saturday night, but no real atmosphere. Zouk was the only busy place, but it also is a small club relatively. I think the club itself is the size of Orange room, but I guess they get the capacity rating when they combine all the other clubs in the complex. Oh, and the beer there was $10 a bottle two years ago.
I am not sure if I have been to Sankeys or a similar place when I was in Manchester about 6 years ago. I think it was one of the main Defected in the House clubs at the time there, but the club itself was a place in an old warehouse about the size of Century Room but with the Footwork atmosphere. The music was good, and the people were into it, which made it good.
Toronto has many nice places with great music that rivals most of the other clubs on the list. However, its the city and people living in Toronto that make the difference. Someone is always complaining about noise, clubs keeping long lines even though the club may be empty, etc... But I do have to agree that Saturday nights at Guvernment are a bit unbearable. Keep your shirts on people is all I have to say.
