Avoid Birdcage at all costs, it's fucking horrific no matter what night of the week it is.  |

I ended up in the clubs around Deansgate on my last night out there and they were quite good. Think they were called baa bar and sugar lounge. Played the killers, arctic monkeys etc if you're into that kind of music.

Fac251 is good on a Friday night, think it's a quid before 12, that's for drinks too Depends what sort of music your into. FAC251 is right up my street and I often end up there. Helps the mrs works there so cheap night for moi in FAC. 3 floors and different music genres. Mainly Alternative but sometimes a few House classics, think there is some dub step on Friday on top floor. Saturday night is best though. No nob heads as well. Def my fav club at the moment. South is all old school alternative. Nothing to shout home about on Fridays though. If everyone wants a general club with all sorts of shit pumped out I would plump for 5th ave. Pure slags in there. Its fail safe! Or 42's just off Deansgate. Avoid the printworks, horrible. Head up Northern Quarter just of Piccadilly for pre drinks and hit Blu Bar, Walrus, Socio Rehab etc.... Cracking bars. For a strip club hit Fantasy Bar or there is a good un opposite Deansgate Locks that we used to sneak off to. |

Only decent place there is Tiger Tiger |

Last time I was in Manc I went to a club owned by the same people who used to own Factory Records and the Haccienda? Assume this is FAC251?

I love the printworks in the day, and if you want a quiet night at the cinema and nando's it's great, and the spoons is ok. However, it's full of cunts and I hate going there then into the Birdcage on a Wednesday, but the girls at home who always organise the taxis and shit make us go there as they just pull every manc chav in there. It's poor considering Manchester is probably my easiest night out to do, and I've not been to Deansgate yet. Really need to sort myself out over the summer. |

They own South in Manchester and clubs in York and Newcastle. Think they are called Tokyo Industires. Mrs said there looking to open one in LA to! |

The Footage is the best place in the world as well.

It's annoying as well because me and my mates keep saying we have to do it, but we can't organise ourselves to get on the train. That's it, one train journey, that costs about 5 quid, and we're there in 30 mins. On a Wednesday night Birdcage is a student night so it's just full of girls under 18 and chavs. Nothing however beats a night at Shakespeare's then Greg's though ;D |

Cheeky quad vods in the Shakey then onto that shit hole Gregs or Ratcatchas. Good times. If your feeling flush a quick (v quick!!) trip into Residence. Only problem with Nantwich is its full of snobs or chavs, no inbetween. Prefer Mani myself but it does locally.

Our group started goin Nantwich last year randomly for a student night, got to say its a much better night out than the dive that is Hanley! Dirt cheap drinks in the Malbank, followed by more dirt cheap drinks in the Shakey, and then as much as a dive Greg's is when you're already pre pissed its an alright end to the night, some alright music, usually a fair load of fit birds and not too expensive drinks, works for me! Theres always a trip up Nantwich every time we are all back from uni now, but Manc is defo one for us this summer too |

You're going Friday? SO AM I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fuck off, I'm in Manchester all weekend ;D Hopefully Uni will let me back in next year so I'm visiting some mates in the house I'll (hopefully) be living in. We're going out on Friday, not sure where but I'd guess we'll end up in 42s or Factory. We should meet up, although I will lay you out if you call me a cunt in real life. |

The Footage is the best place in the world as well. I'd say there's a very good chance that we've both been in Footage at the same time before. I spent alot of 2008 and 2009 in there. |
