Also agree that lack of nightspots means people clashing as they're forced to mix crouds etc.

Bring on small bars in newie ala melbourne. Would liven up Hunter streezy a bit.
Last post before I hit the sack as I'm off to Berlin tomorrow.

I remember back in the 1990's.

You could go out and you would leave to go out at 10pm.

What did we have. The Castle, JR, Jacks on King, Casbah, Empire hotel, The Family Hotel, Hunter on Hunter, The Lucky, Mercury Hotel, The Grand, Great Northern, Cambridge Hotel, Lass O'Gowrie, Star Hotel, Fanny's, The Brewery, Crown and Anchor and the Worlds Biggest Disco at the Workers Club.

Both Hunter Street and King Street were the places to be. A venue every 100 metres or so. It was quite common to go into 5 or so venues in a single night. There was hardly any problems. The city rocked, there was awesome music and depending on the night it was always the possibility of still drinking when the sun is coming up.

What do we have left now? Just big booze dens full of bogan yobbo's.

Disgrace.
