if B.O.B says this it must be true

The prices have definitely changed think i paid £3.65 for a bottle of blue wicked!!!

I knew mark deakin would get mentioned at some point lol

thing is the strategy could have been oh so simple

half THE entry price vs digital entry and reduce drinks prices

"get brained" was rammed when they pursued this policy

hardly rocket science

digital was always going to have a 6mth honeymoon period where everyone went to check it out

it would be interesting if a foundation style venue opened up again now

can we dig this thread back up in 2 years time

just before feb 2010 when ferry plays evolve for the 4th time

they can still have a livelihood with 90% of the pie

trouble is they want 100%

there should be a consumer watchdog for clubbing

Anyone have any idea what Judgement Day will be like at Digital?

Slightly off topic i know

I could do my job for the money I'm on now, or I could aim for a pay rise. It's not rocket science.

In terms of shops - just look at what Morrisons has did to the smaller shops on Shields Road!! similar sort of scenario here :chill:

But there are more small nights now than there ever were in the past! Go back to around '96, there was only really Shindig and Nice that were regular.

Theres a fair few closed i see your point though

A bit of competition certainly isnt bad!!!

when I go for a pay rise tho I am pretty sure it is often not putting someone else out of work

i dont know why people havent sussed they want as much money out of the toon market so they can open up a chain of digitals nationwide

less competition = more money = more operating wonga nationwide

competition isnt bad if it improves what is on offer overall

they may swallow up the market in the short term but in the long run the punters will go for quality over quantity

Theres no way digital is preventing or a threat to other smaller nights in town. Quite the opposite, Digital should be very concerned imo at the quality of upcoming nights and local DJs.

The clientele recently of digital is a bit of a joke - chavs trying to get away with smoking on the dancefloor and dealing cowies in the toilets.

The continual booking of big name DJs in that air hanger of a main room just isnt cutting it anymore i reckon.

viva Habit, Error....etc

So what though? Why's that bad?

nothing but imho it has led to the demise of a really good night

junior g.

digital are watching what is happening, thats why wax: on now runs the same night as habit

tbh the club based night that will end up running rings round them all is error , that's if people dont get bored of the cosmic glitterball

This gets talked about on here every two weeks you bunch of communists.

You have to ask 2 questions if you want to put a night on in Newcastle; is there a market for the night I want to run?

What is my motivation for doing it?

The simple fact is, clubbing is not as popular as it once was and smaller nights will struggle to fill stuff up. I'm sure this is effecting Digital too (maybe to a lesser extent) but I'd imagine that they have fairly aggressive sales targets by the fact that they have just opened a club in Brighton, you can't really blame them for wanting to fill their club.
