Re: Matter bankrupt?
It's not about the driving, because if you responsible you probably wouldn't be driving home. I have stopped going to one of my favourite local nights because they moved and I simply can't afford the cab trip home. I can catch public transport there.
Re: Matter bankrupt?
[QUOTE=jeffrey collins;867714]It's damn sad that people will let a little bit of extra driving get in their way of a great night at a fantastic club. Though I doubt that's the REAL reason. It's all based in rumors until the real truth comes out. And then it's probably still not going to be the REAL truth.[/QUOTE]

Last time I went there the cab back cost nearly £60 which doubled the cost of the whole night. It would of cost me about £4 to get the underground both ways.
When I went there for Dave Seaman the underground wasn't working so we had to get a cab to the venue from central London. When we flaged a cab down the cabe said Fuck Off I'm not driving al the way out there. The cab we got cost us £40
Re: Matter bankrupt?
if you paid that much for a cab ride when you could have just taken the train is beyond me. i don't like cabs, especially when public transport is so easy in huge cities like London, NY etc.
Re: Matter bankrupt?
I think what Chunky was saying was that the trains weren't running so he was forced to take a cab that time. No-one in their right mind takes a cab in London if it can be avoided. For £60 you can hire a car for the weekend or stay in a hotel. That's how daft it is.

Shame, I like supporting local nights. :(

The trains wern't running most weekends because they where doing weekend work on the lines ready for the olympics in 2012. I went to Matter 5 times and the trains where running once. :x

Hotels don't let you party in the room with loud music, hookers & cocaine for a couple of days:lol:
