The club was started in 1989 by Gary Dent and Michelle Carr. Although much-beloved, the club had a hard time keeping afloat, and two benefit albums were compiled to aid the establishment. Sadly, the influential venue closed its doors permanently in 1997, squashing the owners' dreams of moving the club to a bigger venue. | The club was started in 1989 by Gary Dent and Michelle Carr.
