So...anyone been to the Hoxton yet? New place from the people behind the Social (which is closed now).
I see that Fake Blood and Autoerotique are there on september 3rd...
Are they open late, like Footwork? Good vibe? |

What's a "soft" opening? I read an article in The Grid saying that it opened a few weeks ago.
The Tribe reviews are fantastic... |

Was just there last night, good crowd lots of women, a bit older than at the Social. Crap sound system though and most people were chilling socializing rather than dancing.
I definitely see a lot of potential with the space. |

Not everything has been finished yet (or at least, as of a few weeks ago), various things need to be perfected and installed and so on. Sort of like beta testing for a club. :D |

Crap in what way? If that is confirmed to be permacrap (not a fixable issue) then I can save myself a night of pain and avoid. You can skimp on a lot of areas in a club but imo that's not 1 of them. |

| If it's anything like the Social, it'll be open regular bar hours, and have 4am last call every time there is a festival somewhere in Toronto |
