Car park mate, probably a few dead soles underneath there! It was only famous ( infamous? ) for the drugs!! I prefered Atmospheres at the back of M53 Fords!

Stairways is still there Placidmaster. Don't know whether it's open though. A young lad died there a year or two back. I used to go there around '84 -'85.

It started out around late 1979 as a rock club called The Gallery. It was owned by a bloke called John Reid who was in Ellesmere Port band Strife:

JR also owned the Headwaiter off-licences. You might remember there was one just around the corner on Argyle St, next to the chemists.

The only thing of note about The Gallery is that Iron Maiden once played there in their very early days. I was in a band with a lad who was there.

MC Cyanide "I've got a sawn off shot gun"

Went to a few a club kinetic event there. I think it may have been new year 1996 (I was circa 14, oops) Vibes and Livelee, DJ Trix, Stu Allen, Mc hurricane, MC cyanide.

What about the Zoo club.
