| quote: | One of Britain's best-known nightclubs, Fabric, could be stripped of its licence and forced to close after a string of drug-related deaths.
In September a teenage girl died after taking MDMA at the club. Police say in the last three years eight people have collapsed - four later died. The licencing committee is now reviewing Fabric's licence, with a meeting due tonight.
For two years running, Fabric was voted the 'Best Club In The World' in DJ Magazine's top 100 clubs. But if the committee votes to withdraw its licence, the club will be forced to close.
The venue's fate should be known tonight. |

Its just an excuse to close down the club, sure, there has been drug related deaths but a lot of clubs have had similar incidents, one of the clubs I play has a purpose built recovery room for incidents relating to drugs, its not talked about but its there hidden out of the way, the club owners realise that no matter how good the security, no matter how many posters they put up, someone is going to be taking drugs inside their club.
The recovery room has trained medical staff man it constantly whilst the club is open and has no doubt saved a couple of lives.
As for Fabric, its in an area that is up for refurbishment,there are a lot of smaller venues in that area including cafes and pubs that have been forced to close down and then have been bought by the local council at a cheap price.
I do a lot of work in the area and have noticed the demise of these kind of places increase over the last 18 months.
Its like Ministry of Sound, its been under threat of closure for years, its in a residential area and has also seen a couple of drug related deaths and murders!
Yet it remains (mainly down the owners whom are lets say, not really intrested in music but the money they can cleanse through the place, a lot like Cream in Liverpool, it was owned by the Mafia.. and said owners can buy a lot of influence)
Fabric is a legit business so does not share the same kind of 'influence' as do other clubs. |

It's usually uneducated users, or drugs not being what the user thought they were, when it comes to drug-related deaths.
Clubs know that if a place was impossible to get drugs in to, they would lose loads of business as people will go elsewhere where they can. |

Over here wits blowing out on ghb is pretty common. As far as I know they always seem to be close to death and it's rare for them to actually die though. |
