Hope it's a successful first night DB! or DD now I guess..can't get used to your name change :D Angel05 09-11-2004, 16:56 I shall be there all being well... with the other half in tow of course ;) damo 09-11-2004, 22:56 you not going then nick? could have said hi instead of me hiding in the bushes in the insight car park looking for you haha! nick2 10-11-2004, 07:46 Originally posted by damo you not going then nick? could have said hi instead of me hiding in the bushes in the insight car park looking for you haha! I thought I could hear someone in the undergrowth :0) I might come down for a pint. richynomates 10-11-2004, 09:17 I hear that the promoters of this night are quite aggressive when in town. They'll put a poster up on your building, and then when they see you take it down (no permission asked), the poster putter upper threatens to "rip your face off" if he sees you take another one down... will the night itself be this relaxed?? damo 10-11-2004, 15:47 as if! sorry where did you get that story from? that's completley untrue bruce who does the posters could easily be the most laid back person ever! DaBouncer 10-11-2004, 16:44 Originally posted by damo as if! sorry where did you get that story from? that's completley untrue bruce who does the posters could easily be the most laid back person ever! And so small he wouldn't say boo to a goose. Howevever I think I know where this source comes from *cough Dempsey's cough*. You see they were VERY VERY upset when posters went up outside their venue. So much so they were ripped down within minutes of going up. And I know for a fact that Bruce wouldn't ever get upset at that fact, it's not in his nature. Sorry but the source of your 'agression' rumour must either have been telling porkies or has been fibbed to him/herself. Either way - yes the night is gonna be wicked, fun and friendly - come down and you'll see! Jamie 10-11-2004, 17:17 Is it this Thursday (tommorow) !? If so I may pop down, where and what time is it !? DaBouncer 10-11-2004, 17:18 Yo Rude Monkey - check the website dude www.club-vip.co.uk :thumbsup: Jamie 10-11-2004, 17:29 Originally posted by Dirk Diggler Yo Rude Monkey - check the website dude www.club-vip.co.uk :thumbsup: Kewwwwel mate ... 8 till late. I will be there late (salsa obligations) and get there 11.00 - 11.30 ish. See ya there DD (assuming you will be there) :clap: :clap: DaBouncer 10-11-2004, 17:35 Nice one - yes I'll be there! :D sparklesista 10-11-2004, 21:22 Hopefully, I'll be going! I've never been to an LGB night before so it should be a great! ZEDEX48K 10-11-2004, 22:09 What does LGB stand for (sorry for being thick!) Late G? Bar by any chance?. And also where is the Fusion and Foundary and Interval for the pre climax and climax do (no sex puns please!1) :) Cheers Zed ZEDEX48K 10-11-2004, 22:13 Just found out I thinhk it is a GAY night! Oooh no not for me I am afraid, I like me Women :) LGB = Late Gay Bar then? If so not my cup a tea. sparklesista 10-11-2004, 22:44 Originally posted by ZEDEX48K Just found out I thinhk it is a GAY night!

You not comfortable enough with your sexuality then ZEDEX48K to enjoy a good night out regardless of who the actual night is aimed at? Would it interest you to know I am married and I'll be there? Just because it's an LGB night, doesn't mean you can't go and have a laugh. Come on down, you might have fun! richynomates 11-11-2004, 08:15 Originally posted by Dirk Diggler And so small he wouldn't say boo to a goose.

Either way - yes the night is gonna be wicked, fun and friendly - come down and you'll see! Nothing to do with Dempseys I'm afriad - it was more local to Takapuna, ie, Division Street. He was totally rude and overly aggressive, and really not the way to treat neighbours in the same business. But I do now hear that Bruce (who wouldn't provide his name at the time when asked) apologised to the person involved the day after, but in my mind, it leaves a sour taste of how Takapuna and its associates go about their business. nick2 11-11-2004, 09:17 Originally posted by Dirk Diggler Howevever I think I know where this source comes from *cough Dempsey's cough*. Do Dumpseys realy see you as competition ? Your only doing one day a week, and it's not a weekend. Perhaps if you were doing the weekend (which would be nice) they should be worrying, I'ts not a difficult decision to make "flea-pit at the bottom of the Moor that smells of chip fat" or "Clean, new, modern, stylish bar on West Street". ginamoi 11-11-2004, 09:29 If anyone is going and don't have anyone to go with, or is ok with someone to join PM me plz.....my friends pulled out last minute and I don't fancy walking alone into a bar.

I'd never been to a Gay Pub/Club until i moved to Sheffield... I was always told about the good atmosphere... As in the past i have had gay friends... I went to Climax for the first time back in July with my partner and we really enjoyed ourselves... It was a great night out fab atmosphere so free... Now we go every month... A gay Club is where gay people can express themselves freely without people getting funny about their sexuality... You will always find a good mix of Bi / Gay / Hetro people in a gay club... Why deny yourself a great night out because it has the word 'Gay' in a title... :) nick2 11-11-2004, 10:00 Originally posted by Angel05 A gay Club is where gay people can express themselves freely without people getting funny about their sexuality... You will always find a good mix of Bi / Gay / Hetro people in a gay club... I express myself freely anywhere. I just wanted to add, there are loads of great pubs in Sheffield. Don't deny yourself a great night out because "gay" isn't in the title either. Good luck with your opening night guys. bigrods 11-11-2004, 10:34 Originally posted by ginamoi my friends pulled out last minute and I don't fancy walking alone into a bar. I know it's childish but I found that really funny! :thumbsup: tinajones 11-11-2004, 10:34 Nice to bump into you last night Kirk Diggler - my fellow LGB mate is outta town this week so I'm not sure if I'm gonna come now... but ya never know! Good luck with it anyways!:thumbsup: DaBouncer 11-11-2004, 10:58 Originally posted by richynomates Nothing to do with Dempseys I'm afriad - it was more local to Takapuna, ie, Division Street.

Again I find this very very difficult to believe however I wont call you a liar I will query this with Bruce and report back my findings. It would help if you supplied me with your source (in confidence) via PM. Bruce even when drunk wouldn't say that sort of thing to anyone, it's not in any way shape or form his nature. you'd be able to tell by looking at him that he wouldn't capable of such threats. However I will be taking this up and I appriate it being brought to my attention. DaBouncer 11-11-2004, 11:02 Originally posted by tinajones Nice to bump into you last night Kirk Diggler - my fellow LGB mate is outta town this week so I'm not sure if I'm gonna come now... but ya never know! Good luck with it anyways!:thumbsup: Ali - I'm thoroughly gutted. Come on down anyway and I'll introduce you to the peeps. Everyone is really cool and a good laugh. Had to roll up Bruces tongue from the floor last night after you left bless him. You made an impression I think. Reminded him of his girlfriend which seemed to get his mind back on track. Good seeing you anyway last night! Hope the night last night wasn't too 'Gash' for you ;) DaBouncer 11-11-2004, 11:04 Originally posted by nick2 Do Dumpseys realy see you as competition ?

I wouldn't have thought so and we really didn't want to get there back up (but I think we have). Also have discussed with Bruce and we are not going to put up posters outside there venue anymore. In the interest of good relations n all that. nick2 11-11-2004, 11:22 Originally posted by Dirk Diggler I wouldn't have thought so and we really didn't want to get there back up (but I think we have).

Perhaps you could print-up air fresheners with your logo and leave them laying around Dempseys, that would be a win-win situation. damo 11-11-2004, 13:14 hahaha loving that comment nick if only i could see through walls i could wave lol well looking forward to tonight and hopefully will be a good turn out if anyone is going alone i will gladly talk to ya so don't worry about that!

In London an LGB night can be very outrageous but I worry that Sheff will be shocked at some of the outfits in my wardrobe! My wardrobe consists of a mixture of Jodie Marsh's, Jordans & Paris Hilton! Any ideas....? nick2 11-11-2004, 16:13 Originally posted by sparklesista I worry that Sheff will be shocked at some of the outfits in my wardrobe! After a night down the Wicker nothing can shock me. sparklesista 11-11-2004, 16:15 Please explain....! :confused: lol! nick2 11-11-2004, 16:18 After you have seen a 20 stone woman in hotpants, thigh-length silver boots and a boob-tube, nothting else is that shocking. sparklesista 11-11-2004, 16:21 Hmm...

OK but what are other people likely to be wearing? I think I may just stick to something more "sensible" Me too, a nice cardigan, slacks and flat shoes for me. damo 11-11-2004, 16:34 sparklesista i would love you forever if you came wearing something like paris hilton! haha seriously though dress to impress! mimicraze 12-11-2004, 07:39 Oh god me head *OUCH* lol.

Sparklesista x x nick2 12-11-2004, 12:09 I did set-out in the right direction but went for "a few pints before we get there" and ended-up with a rather drunk boyfriend offering to do all sorts of rude things. So we went home. I'll leave him at home next week. ginamoi 12-11-2004, 15:49 :thumbsup: great atmosphere, just what sheffield center needed..

DaBouncer 12-11-2004, 18:06 Originally posted by BoroughGal Cheesy, IMO, but not good cheesy, if you get my drift..... Not having been to a Climax night (yet) I have always been told that Climax has a good mix of music. I suppose you not everyone likes the same music. ginamoi 12-11-2004, 18:48 well, I'm not personally a big fan of 70's 80's pop - it's viable once a month - but havin been the only gay clubby night out in sheffield for so long u'd expect them to play some more underground type music at least in one of the rooms sparklesista 12-11-2004, 19:16 I like a bit of everything & I don't mind cheesy 70's, 80's or 90's pop! I like all different types of music, it just depends on my mood! I'm looking forward to going regardless as I've never been and the most important thing to me on a night out is the atmosphere. I'll let u know what I think of it after next Friday!!! damo 12-11-2004, 19:24 wicked night last night had a really good atmosphere was nice getting to see and talk to some forum peeps especially angel05 and her other half sorry i didnt chat longer next time ill be sober and make sense and have a good convo! sparklesista 12-11-2004, 20:13 Originally posted by damo wicked night last night had a really good atmosphere was nice getting to see and talk to some forum peeps especially angel05 and her other half sorry i didnt chat longer next time ill be sober and make sense and have a good convo!

DaBouncer 15-11-2004, 10:25 Well that blonde lad is actually Ginger and 19 yrs old. The drinks promo's are that good if you like the drinks that are on offer. I personally go for the £1.80 pint of coors (which is usually £3 a pint). Jobs a good un. Will have a word about more drinks offers with Taka's tho and see what we can do! ;) NatalieSheff 15-11-2004, 10:29 yeah tell chris to stop being a tight arse and get malibu on the promo!

Pauly 21-11-2004, 19:43 I reckon this week will be the real tester. Last week was a little quiet due to bad weather and people saving for Climax the night after. This week should be much better as the Climax crowd were hit by VIP flyers as they came out of the club and that should hopefully reel a few more people in. I'll be very surprised if it's not the busiest night so far for VIP @ Takapuna. :) Fingers crossed. :) SpiderPete 25-11-2004, 16:31 Well me and my brother are off to Takapune tonight, he dont know yet, lol, Is it free or do u have to pay ? SpiderPete 26-11-2004, 18:34 Well I got my answer, it was free when we arrived. Well what do we think to Takapuna ..... well we loved it, nice place, good music, nice atmosphere and no doubt we will be abck again. Only problem is the drinks were bloody expensive. DaBouncer 26-11-2004, 18:41 Yeah that's the touble with city centre bars Peter - however I heard tonight that Dempsey's is also stupidly high priced for drink aint it? Anyway it's either crappy VK bottles or nice Smirnoff (which are more expensive). We've approached the subject with the management and they are keen to listen and take things like this forward. However the event is very young so we have to play it by ear I'm afraid. I have spoken with them today and apparantly there will be some good deals on Reef coming up. There is still drinks offers on Budwieser and Arches Aqua (last night - £2 a bottle which for a trendy bar like that is good prices). We'll see how we go and as the night gets more popular and the place fills up Takapuna can afford to put on special offers tailored to VIP. Glad you enjoyed the night and if you got their before charging then you must have stayed a long time. Nice one :thumbsup: SpiderPete 26-11-2004, 19:18 Dempseys charge about £2.20 a pint. We were drinking a lager that was on offer, £1.80 a pint, cannot remember what it was, it was nice, then it went to £3, and it was /..... OMG .. lol. But we expected this for a pub on West Street. Yes we got there for about 8.15 and we stayed to about 11.30ish. The music kept us there and the pub is very trendy. I am sure from what I saw it will get better when more people find out about it, and I did notice quite a few guys who normally go do Dempseys were there last night. As I say u get what you pay for, and the layout of the pub and the seating etc etc is 100% better than we have had in Sheffield for a long time. DaBouncer 26-11-2004, 19:33 That was Coors you were drinking for £1.80 a pint. Good stuff that, shame the offer only lasts till 9pm :( However as time progresses and the night gets more and more popular we have scope to negotiate the deals crowd are looking for. Keep an eye out for the drinks offers stuck up around the bar area next time you come down and stick to them. We'll find that happy medium believe me ;) Glad you had a good night inside - I enjoyed standing on the front door for the majority of the evening :roll: damo 26-11-2004, 22:36 yes but kirk it was worth it in the end when i apparently kissed you on the hand? lol DaBouncer 26-11-2004, 22:39 You did - how p***ed were you? :lol: skyfitsboy 29-11-2004, 00:53 Sounds like a gud night, I might pop down on Thursday night:P damo 02-12-2004, 09:02 hope you do mister havent seen you in ages Pauly 02-12-2004, 17:46 Are the forumers meeting in a certain area or do we have to go around asking random strangers if they're from 'The Forum' :o D2J 02-12-2004, 17:53 Scuse me... Are you from the Forum.. Works a treat :clap: DaBouncer 02-12-2004, 17:55 You mean you guys aren't coming down in Sheffield Forum logo'd T-Shirts and ringing a bell like a town cryer? :roll: sparklesista 02-12-2004, 18:14 Don't ask anyone if they are on the Sheffield Forum! I asked one guy if he was on the Forum because my other Forum buddy insisted she knew him and he didn't have a clue who I was talking about! At least I won the bet though! :hihi: sparklesista 02-12-2004, 18:16 On second thoughts.... Why don't you just announce over the mic for everyone on the Sheffield Forum to remain standing! Then you will know the ones that are left are and the ones who have sat down aren't or either have a sore bum from not wanting to be seen standing! Lol! Hope that makes sense? :? :hihi: D2J 02-12-2004, 18:21 Nooooooooooooo Don't do that, cos then you will realise who you talk too most days.. Reality hits hard :suspect: sparklesista 02-12-2004, 18:24 Haha! I bet people would think twice about what they posted after that! ;) thebodgie 02-12-2004, 18:33 I'm gonna look for Geno with the camera - hopefully he can point me to a few forum-goers. Or Angel05 - at least she posts a pic so should be able to spot her. See you guys there (hopefully) Angel05 02-12-2004, 18:35 Originally posted by thebodgie I'm gonna look for Geno with the camera - hopefully he can point me to a few forum-goers.

PM me with some details of what you play though mate, just for future reference.. DaBouncer 10-12-2004, 15:41 Just to let people know that VIP isn't running next week (i.e. 16th December). Unfortunately with it being Christmas n all and that we only started running 5 weeks ago (or so) Takapuna already pre-booked Xmas parties. As a result it would be close to 10.30/11pm before we could get any DJ's (i.e. Greg C / Kirk / Gaz n Neal) kicking out some choonage. So we've decided to hold off next week and prepare for the Christmas Special of VIP on Thursday 23 December. I trust you'll all grace us with your presence and come down for some fun n frolics in a state of pure unadulterated delectation :D :thumbsup: Angel05 13-01-2005, 12:23 Hmmm... A little confused :? (not that it takes alot!) :hihi: Didnt think VIP was on until next week??? whilst listening to the Hallam FM's guide on what to do tonight (around lunch time) VIP @ takapunas was mentioned? :o Is this right? or do they just advertise every week an made a boo boo this week :? DaBouncer 13-01-2005, 13:19 Nice to hear Hallam promoting VIP - however VIP isn't back until next week (20th Jan) for certain. I'll drop hallam a line but it's probably too late now anyway.

The Pearl Rockers are without a doubt Sheffield's elite breakdancers/body poppers on the circuit. Headlined by Electri'k they bring their art to Sheffield's Premier LGB Event for an evening of entertainment that's going to rock Takapuna to it's core. Along with Electri'k we're going to see some spectacular moves from: Estrada, Rubot and Flow Come on down this Thursday and watch the Pearl Rockers do their stuff, and if you fancy learning a thing or two about Body Popping or Breakdancing, you can chat to the crew about their weekly classes. Angel05 03-02-2005, 18:33 Originally posted by Snook I fancy checking it out at some point... sounds fun! I will agree with you it is fun... :) ps Pauly & myself will be there as usual :wink: sicubitt 03-02-2005, 19:48 How many people go to VIP at takapuna? I've only really been to Climax on a regular basis. SpiderPete 03-02-2005, 21:12 I have been down ... but not for a while..... unfortunately it makes me feel not too well on a Friday at work... hangover etc... and plus I am always out on a Friday ... so Thursdays is a bad nite for me.... but I will pop down one Thursday nite for a couple of hours.... DaBouncer 04-02-2005, 09:04 Oh my god how good were the Pearl Rockers last night !:D It must be one of the best atmosphere's we've had at VIP since we launched. These boys know their stuff that's for sure, and they did a blinding job in The Lounge. We even had one of our VIP regulars get up and battled with the Pearl Rockers causing a massive cheer from the crowd when she showed them that even with no Breakdance Experience, she could put on a good performance. We had a few enquiries after we left about how people could learn to do what the Pearl Rockers do, so for everyone else who's interested check this out (http://www.forumsheffield.co.uk/electricslide/). I'm sure we'll see the Pearl Rockers on @ VIP again pretty soon for those who missed out, so you can see how good these guys really are. Well Done Guys :thumbsup: sparklesista 08-02-2005, 12:52 Only popped on here for a min but I'll definatley let Electri'K know that you were pleased with their perfomance last Thursday. They said they might come down again so all you people out there that want to see them again or for the first time say - YES! :clap: He also told me to let you know that if you want to learn breakdancing or bodypopping get down to the Forum on Monday nights because he teaches his class there every week. I have been working at Takapuna on Thursday nights for 3 weeks now and I just want to say that everyone I've met so far are really nice! It's a really chilled atmosphere - no tention at all and although I get bored sitting in that freezing booth :P it makes me warm inside to meet such friendly people! :) (Kirk - any signs of an electric heater yet? :D ) Pauly 08-02-2005, 15:31 Originally posted by sparklesista They said they might come down again so all you people out there that want to see them again or for the first time say - YES! :clap: YES! :clap: Angel and I missed them last week as we were sat upstairs.
