VNV NATION

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

That it is. Sadly it had recently gone from being an impressive club/concert venue that celebrated all things musically subversive to being rechristened/remodeled as Avalon which boasts a hip-hop/bland disco agenda.

Dontcha just hate it when that happens. 'They' killed the Town & Country in Leeds a couple of years back. Bastichs.
If you were asking my opinion then I would say delete that.

Hell ya. I've seen quite a few infamous local clubs go through this sad transformation(as well as closing altogether)in order to cater to the mainstream masses.....and fail in the longrun. City Gardens, a club/concert hall here in New Jersey that served to be a haven for a countless number of punk/goth and industrial acts, also suffered a similar fate.
I believe VNV Nation are the first uncoventional "band" Avalon have booked since it opened as such. Though VNV are no stranger to the Limelight days. I've seen them perform there in '98/'99. Good show.
