As the reports come in, we thought we had better let you know that we have lost Crackers as a venue. Rumours say that the bus station and NCP Car Park are being refurbished so its got to go.
Here is the report in "This is Gloucestershire" -
"""""Clubbers are mourning the loss of one of Gloucester’s best known nightspots.
The unexplained closure of Crackers in Bruton Way marks the end of an era for city nightlife.
Over the past 23 years the venue has hosted everything from heavy metal concerts to stripper nights.
On the nightclub’s Facebook page, clubbers have left messages paying tribute to the popular club.
Gareth Pyle said: “It’s a very sad day for everybody who knows and fondly remembers Crackers, which has always been one of the few places people into alternative – well, let’s not beat about the bush – proper music could go to, safe in the knowledge that they could enjoy themselves in a friendly environment.
“Thanks for the memories guys, it was a blast, and I think people will only truly appreciate you now you’ve gone. RIP.”
Amie Parkes said: “Can’t believe you are actually gone, it will take a long time to sink in.
“I would like to say thank you for all the good nights, the music, the laughter, the people and the wonderful memories.
“You will be sorely missed by so many of us. All the best for the future.”
It is believed Crackers officially shut early last week.
A statement on the club’s Myspace page does not explain why the club has closed, but says: “We are sad to announce that Crackers nightclub is closing its doors.
“Over 23 years the venue has welcomed clubbers and music lovers alike. No matter what the genre, you were sure to find something interesting happening with us.
“We’ve made many, many friends over this time and they have become more like extended family to us. We wish them all the best in their lives and hope to see you all at some point in the future.
“Thank you for all the support you have shown us!
“An end of an era, but we look to the future.” """""
- We will be getting our heads together to see where we go from here and will keep you posted
Cheers

Hark The Heralds Goblins Sing!! IllumiNaughty returns to the Chapel Again!!!
After what proved to be a blissfully bizarre gathering of Biblical proportions last May IllumiNaughty cordially invites you to congregate with us for one last time at The Chapel, Wilmslow Rd.
On the 19th Sept AT MIDNIGHT, we’ll throw a party to rumble the heavens in a farewell celebration to Manchester’s weirdest House of Worship. Unfortunately The Chapel will be forced to close its doors soon as a venue so it seemed only right to us to bid this quirky building the goodbye it deserves.
