In this case, I'm guessing they're not. Lucky students tho'.
Oh Stuart! The old CPL hotline will be melting as we type - Donny Cash may blow a gasket. |

And number 2 really is hard to believe. The Cathouse has had very little serious competition in recent years, as it doesn't open on a Monday or Tuesday (Attic @ Garage, Rev @ QMU obviously) but now that AltNation has started in Bamboo and is evidently going to do well for the forseeable this is the true test for it.

| Re: Free Entry Every Thursday To Everyone The first serious competition the Catty has ever had on a Thurday consists of their most prominent DJ and the guy who does their website? What a fucking twist! Someone call M. Night Shyamalan.

| Re: Free Entry Every Thursday To Everyone You're all quick to jump on and bash the guy in a thread he's made to tell you about a new promotion.
a.) He could have not bothered telling you.
b.) Why mock a club that's like a second home to most of you from what you post on here? |

| Re: Free Entry Every Thursday To Everyone Remember: club promoters aren't just doing their job—they're doing you a favour.
Didn't Firehouse start doing free entry, really cheap drinks, and live jelly wrestling? Didn't New Flesh shut down as a result? Didn't Firehouse mysteriously vanish two weeks later? Hasn't this pattern been repeated for about a decade?
