Not music per se but thought I'd mention the closure of a venue, that being HQ in Adelaide.

Yep, it is what it is (or was) - a very mass market nightclub aimed at the younger crowd which had plenty of ups and downs over the years with quite a bit of drama along the way. But it was ridiculously big relative to the population of the city it's in, survived a lot longer than most and there aren't many clubs that do practically every genre of music from DJ's playing doof doof on Saturday to live heavy metal bands during the week. And of course Flashies for the mid-week party crowd who wanted to dress up in something silly and party like it's 1990.

I'm well outsdie the clubbing demographic these days but still sad in many ways to see it go. Seen some epic live shows, mostly metal / rock, there over the years on various trips to Adelaide and always had a blast.

They haven't messed about that's for sure. Closed on Sunday morning and well on the way to being stripped out today. Next comes the physical demolition of the buildings (except the original Newmarket Hotel which is heritage listed) which isn't far away either.

RIP Heaven / HQ 1992 - 2017

Photos: In it's heyday and earlier today being stripped out internally.

Went to Guns N' Roses last night (Adelaide).

Awesome show and we were up the front. Over 2.5 hours pretty much non-stop.

No idea why I'm posting on ASF at 6:30 in the morning though. Probably because I haven't been to sleep yet. And it's raining, I'm a bit drunk* and have been up all night partying.

*Getting drunk isn't hard when you generally don't drink so nothing to brag about there.

Did they do Sympathy for the devil? Awesome tune even if I prefer the Stones version :)

 
S
awww - The Schmaltz! ... and all the old Biddies wipe away their tears.

I much prefer less often played Masters of Romantic Music, such as:


Sounds like a German/Polish Jew scorelines from old Hollywood movies?
