Ron1903 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Alright folks,I'm up in Aberdeen this weekend for the Oasis gigs, not been out in Aberdeen for a few years, was wondering what nightclubs are decent. Prob prefer somewhere that plays indie/rock sort of music altho other recomendations are wlecome. Have been to Exodus before, it was no bad. Also heard Snafu/Tunnels are ok but not sure what sort of music it is on a Saturday, think Tunnels was soul or something last time I was up. Anything to keep me away from Liquid would be good! When does Private Eye's close? Oh and last question, whats Frank Mcdougalls bar called again? Might go there when get off the train, is it on the street beside the club shop? Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Frank McDougalls bar is the Criterion. Snafu and the Tunnels are decent, there might be a dj or a band or something on on a Saturday though. Upstairs at O'Neils has some good tunes, just off of Belmont Street. Link to comment

Where is the Criterion then from the train station? To the left or right? Oh aye, heard of the one above O'Neils though it might be packed out by the time we get into town Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Basically turn left out the station, straight ahead of you, canna miss it. Link to comment
Afc_83 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Basically steer well clear of Liquid and Pearl. Absolute shiteholes Link to comment
walkingonglass Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Moshulu on Saturday is Adventures In Stereo - Indie/Rock/Electro night that's usually packed out.. http://www.barflyclub.com/Moshulu/whatson/...tures+in+Stereo Link to comment
Guest SS RED Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 If you are under 22, liquid, pearl lounge or tiger. Link to comment

Agreed, also known as Squealers by some. As Robo says, most the places in Aberdeen are sh*t holes. Retro Rooms is ok though. Link to comment

Guest SS RED Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Babylon is always a good night out!! If you have a spare couple of grand. Link to comment
Jaws Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 If you have a spare couple of grand. Expensive as frigg. You'll be lucky to get change from a tenner for 3 drinks in there. The key is to get wasted before going. Link to comment
TrimmTrab Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Pearls dead expensive too, bought 5 drinks and got about a pound chnage in return for a crisp Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Pearls sh*t. Ain't been there for about a year. Link to comment

dazzy_deff Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 ! I had one drink there, and that was the last time I was in there, also me and a known Buckie Thistle player (ex Peterhead) were close to fighting with 2 other guys over nothing. We had far to much to drink that night. If its the same buckie player i think it is i very much doubt it was over nothing. Link to comment

Ron1903 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Cheers for the tips guys, think will be Exodus/Moshulu or possibly upstairs at O'Neils Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 It'll take you a good 10 years to get served in Moshulu. Link to comment
Slim Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I see he was in the EE today for assaulting someone. Link to comment
K OK Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Moshulu is a nightmare to get served drinks. It also has very sticky floors which is very annoying. I personally wouldn' t recommend there for a night out. Saturday night at Tunnels should be a good night but it's dance music, probably not what your looking for. I'd say O'neils upstairs for the type of music your after. Exodus can be OK on the odd occasion, but full of emos! Link to comment

Might try tunnels then I like dance music but not sure if my pals will fancy it, think I tried to go before but was a strange soul night or something.I'm quite into my dance music (last time was up tried to persuade my pal to go to some hardcore night at Kef, but he wasnt for it, maybe just as well!!). Will prob just decide on the night, Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 If you don't like Tunnels there's a club right across from it you might like Link to comment
