A new poll has been added in the Main Page of the community. Which is the most adequate venue to host a gig? Which one do you prefer? Poxx Bar (Paceville in-front of Eden Cinemas), Remedy (Coconut Upstairs), Coconut( Coconut Downstairs), Elements (Paceville), Liquid Club (San Gwann), Rookies (Bugibba) or maybe some other place?

For Me, Poxxbar is the best place :)

Well I must say regarding space, Liquid Club would be my choice, however the transport from San Gwann for those who don't have a car is a problem, so I vote for Poxx Bar too (though it's a crime that they don't always have absinthe!)

Poxx Bar is the best, as it has much more space than Remedy, and its in Pv, so everyone can have easy access to it.. Liquid Club is good as well, but as melisande said..it would be difficult for those without a car of their own..to attend to gigs..

poxx for me..easier to get out if a fire etc should break out.. well, somebody has to think of these things eh! :)

Well, there's much pros and cons that can be discussed about each place... but I can surely add some comments, like e.g. Liquid is not the ideal place from bands' point of view due to the BS requirements from the management. Some mentioned transport - well Signals was never a problem even for those who did not drive, but then again it was on the way to PV so lots of public transport passes close to there. Currently, Poxx bar is the best bet, especially regarding space (and air) but I don't blame bands who play at remedy even just for the change.

i would like to ask those who voted 'Other', which places do they prefer rather than poxx bar, remedy etc etc ....

I miss Signals a lot, I miss old times for BBQs and that great metal brothers atmosphere. if I had the money, I would definitely reopen Signals.

Insomma Kev... think again, if you ever talk to an owner of these places, you will see that our scene is not exactly the best scene for which to keep an establishment up and running. You have to have enough money to pay for the place and keep it running and not expect any big profit. That is why these places do not last an eternity. Take coconut.... downstairs being a bit more mainstream keeps things going. Poxx bar.... holding events for all styles is what's doing the trick. Elements.... well we've already seen our fair share of the place closing and re-opening, but at least it's holding out quite well.

i miss signals, liquid was perfect, do they still do gigs? At the moment in the scene there are only 2 choices, poxx and remedy, and id pick poxx for sound quality.
