Market Night Club Returns as Angel Lane

Chong

Anyone know anything about this, seems to be taken shape now over the past few days, also seems like they are going to open the back up also that leads out there to where mollies is.

Angel Lane. Sounds like a strip club!

I hope theyve done something good with the place and that it wont just be another carbon copy niteclub with "charts" and "various" music.

I was never in The Market before (too young when it was open), but its reputation is well known. Hopefully, even if it does have a dodgey new name , it will have improved enough to offer offer a safe, good alternative to Molly's and Trooms.

Dumdum McCarthy

As Far As I Know Its Opening This Thursday Nite!i Know The Head Bouncer And He Dislikes All Scumbags So It Should Be Safe!!!!!

Angel Lane, the irony in that name

I hope they got rid of the old carpet.

cooperguy

Ill definatly give it a shot anyway. They picked a bad time of year to open though what with all colleges finishing up now.

Or good Time

cooperguy

haha. I finish college for good on Monday so I can no longer take offence:D However a club with no customers wont do very well. Limerick is dead most nights of the week over the summer

well theyve kept the old sound system anyway, just refurbished it a bit.

one thing i must saw about trinity is that funktion one system is fantastic when the dj playing knows how to tweak it properly. with some of the dj's it just turns into a bassy messy sludge, but when its going good, its really good!!

The Market, scene of some of my greatest moments, was a complete kip. Glad to see if back!

Heard by all counts it looks fab inside! and over 21's! whoo hoo!

Opens Thursday night, only open Thurs to Sundays.

So I have heard anyhoo.

Insect Overlord

I'm looking forward to checking it out anyway. Does anyone know if it will be operating a door policy of Over 18s or Over 21s?

21s and supposed to be good music.

jackncoke what you think to the grafitti adorning the estate?

Hope it gets cleaned up, even its a couple of weeks but they cant leave it there.

A book of condolences would have been better but I can undsertand teenagers want to show their respect, so not saying anything now but I hope its cleaned up after a while.
Even the stop sign was taken down and they wrote all over that!
And the sign to the main entrance!

Can clubs legally turn away people specifically because they are under 21? If they
are over 18?

Thought all that rubbish with the over 21 over 23 and Dress codes went out the window
a few years back as it was seen as discrimination ??

And wasn't there some other thing they had years back where a club had to serve you food at a certain time in order for the place to stay open and sell Booze? I remember
places like Doc's giving out Curry and Termights giving our wedges and salty cocktail sausages.

Last time I was clubbing down that area I think the place was called Saints n Scholars
I still have a Comp for the opening night from 92/93 I think at home along with a
Tropics gold card!

From my days in nightclub security (not up to date)

you can enter any establishment with a valid id card showing your 18 or over but its up to the doorstaff/management who hold the right to refusal.

saints n scholars is a long time ago bullets! wow how time flies!

There is such a fine line between being fine and having too much to drink that for safety reasons people are turned away and always seem to blame the doorstaff instead of the level of alcohol in their systems.

I have heard it on a few doors, the customer being told go away and have a coffee (ie sober up) and come back then, the customer takes it as a F you and they stopped me. iykwim.

Its a job but its not worth losing your life over.

The food thing, I think the law changed on that round the time of the opening hours thing came in, well in Limerick anyway as used to work in Docs then, It was mostly Chilli Con Carne that D cooked!

yeah,i know it was an awful thing to happen but there was no need to rip down the stop sign and scribble all over the entrance

It'd be all covered under Public Order Offences.

Kinda disappointed its gonna be >21s (according to mk-posie) cos tbh I'd like to have somewhere else to go other than trooms and icon.

guess it depends though, as with any place, if yer well mannered etc.. it gets you places, worked for me before I worked in nightclubs, I always remember anyone who gave guff never got anywhere! (long time ago now though, lol)

Harpy

hey where did you hear its openin friday instead??had a good ol night planned for thursday and all booo..i actually can't wait to get a look at the place!!

SuperWoody101

It will be like any other new pub or club that opens in Limerick (Packed for the first few weeks then it will die down)

See I didnt like the origional phrasing of that cause its not an accurate reflection on doorstaff. ie post from dumdummccarthy.

Stab*City

That is no longer what you need to qualify.

There is a long list of requirements, Garda clearance and a security course to be completed before you can now work as a doorman.
Times have changed my friend.

security course hmmm i know a few bouncers that never did a security course.. sounds very hard i wonder what it entails..

module 1: how to say regulars only
module 2: how to ruin peoples nights
module 3: how to be aggressive (courseware provided i.e steroids)
module 4: how to operate a bluetooth headset
module 5: how to look meanacing while wearing a black bomber jacket

as for garda clearance i have seen convicted criminals on doors in this city..

LegacyUser

I guess my only response to that is everyone is entitled to their opinion and you can have yours.

Vertigo100

and just to clear up the other point a club can be over 21s or any age it likes as long as it sticks to that age i.e if u say you are a over 21s club and leave in a few 19 year olds then its seen as discrimination. strange but true

Did he have some association with the club/area or why did they all write their messages there?

zuroph

they're on offtopic mode, that on the signs outside the estate he got stabbed in.

Amazotheamazing

You know, if you chat to bouncers and you aren't a complete tool, usually they're sound back.

I'd much rather less scumbags in a club even if it meant a few angsty, indie kids couldn't get in either.

Those are some pretty serious allegations you're throwing about there. Nobody will disagree with you about some bouncers being as*holes by nature, but what you're suggesting is ridiculously over-the-top. Take a chill-pill dude, seriously. It is also fair to say that this city is full of scumbags, and I for one am pretty damn happy that the worst of them can't get into clubs. It's sh!tty enough having to watch my back in Burger King in case somebody smashes in the windows, without having to worry about dodgey young fellas earlier in the night too.

LegacyUser

my apologies for taking this off topic,

so to bring it back to topic.

Opening night has been pushed out to next Thursday

not opening this weekend.

Chong

WTF next Thursday, I was looking forward to going this Saturday night.

LegacyUser

delays on licence being issued so the story goes

This happened with a few nightclubs I worked in before on opening nights or reopenings after refurbs.

When Docs (I know back in the day) was re launched after a huge makeover I was in vacuuming carpets as they were being laid right up until opening that night! lol

this city is full of all walks of life.. i find it funny that people on this site take offence when i say things about bouncers but yet they themselves throw around allegations left, right and centre when it comes to people they label as "scumbags".. fair enough i know that not all bouncers are like i have described.. but limerick bouncers are in a league of their own when it comes to this kind of thing.. u only have to head out for a night in a different city to see how a bouncer should act.. for a long time the gangsters on the doors in limerick were as bad as the ones trying to get in..
im sure this is changing because in this almost police state(for want of a better word) that we live in you cant fart without your neighbour having something to say.. regulations are being imposed on the whole country and im sure this applies to bouncers as well.. so all in all im not having a dig at all bouncers.. but those who have ruined my night on many occasion i am..

see thats just taking the mick, they are only allowed say "certain phrases" under the law. and must stick to the same reason if questioned. (from my day anyway)

That Icon is crazy, they let you in one week and stop you the next week.
