djscottk 23-05-2006, 02:59 AM It has been a long time since I have posted on here, but I have been keeping up with everything that you have all been saying.
What a read Sheffield forum is! lol.
On behalf of fuel, I would like the opportunity to wipe the slate clean with all of you. We opened a club with very little money in a very tatty old venue that wasn't ideal for what we wanted. We have tried to make the best of it but have faced various setbacks and have made our fair share of mistakes.
Mistakes that have been made because we have continually strived to improve and change, some changes have been good and some haven't.
We will make loads more mistakes and we will make loads more improvements because we are dead set on getting fuel spot on.
Anyway, we are now in a position to open a venue that will be second to none and cannot wait to do so. Thanks to your support, we have been able to invest the money you have spent with us back in, and relaunch a completely different club this Friday 26th May.
We appreciate all of the things you have slagged us off for or commented on and want to assure all of you that we take everything seriously and will do something about all of our short comings as soon as we possibly can.
For instance the mirrors in the gents, this was meant to be a tounge in cheek bit of fun, not a sleaze pit, but we appreciate all of your feedback. We understand it has been taken that way and are adjusting things accordingly. I could list various things but there is no point because it will all be a completely different story by friday.
And yes, I am sure there will be plenty of faults with the new club but we will continue to strive towards our goal of getting the club spot on and we will sort those problems too.
We genuinely want to make a good job of our venue and we want to contribute towards making Sheffield's gay scene better.
It doesn't seem that it is very often that someone has succeeded in doing this in Sheffield before, and if you take this forum as an example of opinions in Sheffield then to be honest it isn't a surprise. It is a daunting challenge trying to please you guys.
But we are up to that challenge and want to do as well as we can for you, and for us.
So how about we all start again with the new venue and you give us a break and a chance to prove that we are going to make an effort for you and we are going to provide you a quality, community-minded club with excellent services?
I know we won't please all of you but I hope that you will see that we are trying and we are genuine.
To get the ball rolling I want to make you all an offer....
I am asking our office manager to contact all of the people that have been in the recent debate on here to offer them VIP entry to our launch party.
We are not to trying to buy you or any other sinister idea that someone may come up with.
We want to say thank you for those of you that have supported us, as well as give those that haven't had a good experience with us before the chance to try us again for free to see if we can do better this time round.
We look forward to showing you what we are really about.
A final thought...
We are always responsive to constructive critiscm so please let us have it directly so we can change things for the better.
Call 0114 2753999 or email info@fuel-sheffield.co.uk
It doesn't matter what it is about or how trivial the issue may be, we need your feedback to improve. We will take it seriously if you give us the chance to.
Thanks for taking the time to read.
I hope to see you all on Friday.
:thumbsup:
lol danny. that was a big one.
:thumbsup:
djscottk 23-05-2006, 03:05 AM Couldn`t agree more, has anyone else noticed the ones complaining/winging most are Climax people, as on the Fuel vs Climax poll, you can see who voted for who.......... or maybe its just me who notice this :suspect:
I don`t think Fuel has gone downhill at all, yes the price of drinks have gone up, but thats not exactly gonna break the bank. Its certainly a better place than any other gay venue, and we do get artists on as well, which I imagine dont come free to Fuel............
As I also mentioed before, if you don`t want to pay £6, get in before 11pm, then its only £4.......... or if thats not good enough for you, then don`t bother going .......... simple really isn`t it..... :thumbsup:
lol belt up.
irony is so last season u wench.:loopy:

Man, they should pay you!!! X
SpiderPete 24-05-2006, 12:38 PM Man, they should pay you!!! X
I don`t charge dear, I like to keep everyone informed who doesnt get the "flyer" email, I am just a kind person, and its on the Fuel thread, so why not.
Some might think I am "Fuel this" "Fuel that" but to be honest, is this face bovvered ......... nope, lol. :thumbsup:
I would probably do the same for the other gay clubs in Sheffield : Xes and Dempseys, but they dont do what Fuel does...... and I ain`t a mind reader. :)
angelgirluk 24-05-2006, 12:43 PM Heee Heee I love ya! I haven't got my flyer yet, got a text though...!

BoroughGal 25-05-2006, 06:39 AM I may have been persuaded to come to the reopening on Friday....
a_starfish 25-05-2006, 01:24 PM Is there any word on an alternative music night? I know this was being mentioned as a possibility months ago but looking at the new line up there's no indication that this is actually going to happen now. :-(
angelgirluk 25-05-2006, 01:41 PM So the fabulous Pink Pounder has gone bye bye, and replaced with a student night....... but I'm not a student :( still they can't please everbody can they?

there will be indie / alternative stuff in the near future. it has just been a massive job improving what we have already without trying to add more to that at the same time. we are looking for quality alternative djs to work with on this project as we speak.
:thumbsup:

it will be very similar just that we have reduced the door price and increased the drinks by 50p. it isn't just for students, we just can't call it a pink pounder if drinks are £1.50. lol

I'm liking it!! I can't wait until I am better and can come down for a boogie. Off work ill at the mo, but we're supposed to be heading down the week after next for the Students Disco so I am really looking forward to that!
Lovin y'all x x

Oh its a Friday ritual at work, we go straight out and stay out for as long as possible, I have been struggling of late, and try to slow down drinking to start with, but it never works , lol........... I always say "I`ll end up in Fuel", but don`t and end up going home, lets hope tomorrow nite I can make it, its been a while since I was last in Fuel, I have almost forgotten where it is :o :o :thumbsup:
angelgirluk 25-05-2006, 11:15 PM Wow, sounds like I am going to be missing a wicked night. Why do I have to be ill!?! :( U sound like the guys I work with, they always say "See you in Fuel..." and we do! Still it's a great night, I love it and I am sure it's going to be loads better now.. I can't wait to cast my eyes on it all! :):):)
Tyranna 26-05-2006, 12:26 AM As you all know by now, NO Big Night at Fuel is complete without....
THE ONE AND ONLY Tia-Anna Sore-Ass Wrecked!!!!
I'll be there, and in style, though probably arriving only around Midnight, as I also have TWO prior engagements that same night..!
Just a quick note also, to tell everyone that you can see a 4-minute trailer of a forthcoming documentary on me, on the MORE4 Channel 4 Website. [COLOR="Red"]It's at: http://www.channel4.com/fourdocs/film/film...ail.jsp?id=5602 :love:
Tyranna 26-05-2006, 12:27 AM P. S. Don't forget to RATE my video on MORE4 by clicking on the stars in the bar beneath the download window pic.
See y'all TOMORROW!!!
SpiderPete 26-05-2006, 12:28 AM I bet there are gonna be a few sore-ass`s tomorrow nite, I know I will be wrecked ...... :P :P :o :thumbsup:
Well I was right, I was wrecked, lol............. but didn`t make Fuel, as I ended up with no one to go with and went home :( .......... so then, what was it like ? Did it live upto your expectations ?, or was it crap ?
Looks like I might be going tonight with ma "bitch friend" lol ........... :thumbsup:
I was impressed. Although there are a few finishing touches needed, it looks a lot bigger than before.
The main dance dance arena (to the right as you enter) is much more open as they have got rid of the raised stage and seating areas. The DJ booth is also a more prominent feature on the far right hand side.
The 'Trash Palace' side is pretty much the same as before, but with a lot of the seating removed to leave room for a dance floor.
The urinal mirrors in the male toilets have been partially frosted, but you can still see a lot of what is going on down below. I prefer the female toilets, with their mosaique mirrors and disco ball.
I think that rather than have hard house/trancey crap in the main room on both Friday and Saturday they should do a 'flip' like Essential and play pop in there one of the nights. The pop room was certainly the busier of the 2 last night, suggesting that is the music most people (including myself) prefer.

I did PM you yesterday to see if you were going, Peter.
I went and I enjoyed myself thoroughly.
They've got rid of a lot of the level-changes within the club, which made it a lot easier for me to get around inside, in my chariot.
I liked the music, I felt a bit "hemmed in" when the place got really full, but, meh, that's the nature of the beast, I suppose.

happysherpa 27-05-2006, 09:52 PM might nip over later for a little while..to see what all the fuss is about..but can only stay till 12am.. cos ill turn into a drag queen otherwise...
see you boys later
ooo and girls
xx
angelgirluk 28-05-2006, 01:46 AM Well... have u been????? X
SpiderPete 28-05-2006, 12:53 PM Well... have u been????? X
Answer for me = No, I ended up in Xes last night and just got home :thumbsup:
happysherpa 28-05-2006, 02:23 PM hiya SF bloggggers.. just a little about my visit to Fuel last night. On arriving.. at aprox 11pm.. people were still queueing to get in.. there where many drag queens on stilts, entertaining us while we were waiting to get in.
Must have got in just b4 11 cos it only cost me 4 quid.. unless they didnt realize it had past 11 haha Some bloke in a wedding dress took my money.. who thort i was a lesbian :hihi: s/he realised i wasnt.. but had a feel at my groin to make sure :love:
We followed the pathway..which led to a huge dance room.. it was pretty amazing.. there was this huge erection of a Dj box..painted in white emulsion.. i went over and touched it.. the music was a mix of dance and funky house.
It was difficult finding the entrance to the Trash room... its a very dark corridor.. that leads to black velvet material.. which you pull aside and enter into DRAG HAVEN and poofs in hotpants.. its amazing.. if you like glitter and Cheeezy classics :thumbsup: This room was very busy.. not alot of room to mince :huh:
I wondered into the gents.. wow the mirrors have changed a little.. they have glued white fancy transfers on the lower edging of each mirror..so you cant easily spy on willies...altho if you really want to.. with effort..you can still spot the odd knob or two. Glancing into the ladies... it seems very glittery..more suited for the gay men.. i think we deserve a glitter ball.. more than the Lesbains.. maybe we would appreciate it :P
i only stayed about half an hour.. but i can imagine when i organise my next night out.. ill be having alot of fun here. Look out for me :D
Judging by the huge queues both on Friday and last night, I wonder if they will have both rooms open tonight? As its a bank holiday I imagine there will be loads of people going out (myself included).
happysherpa 28-05-2006, 05:05 PM i dont think ill be heading out again tonight =o) I think its gonna be very busy
SpiderPete 28-05-2006, 05:06 PM i dont think ill be heading out again tonight =o) I think its gonna be very busy
I might be in there tonight, although I have said this about Friday and Saturday and both times it went wrong, 3rd time lucky lol :thumbsup:
Think I might have to pop in next weekend with some friends sounds like they've done a good job with the place :)
Meaks 28-05-2006, 06:23 PM I might be in there tonight, although I have said this about Friday and Saturday and both times it went wrong, 3rd time lucky lol :thumbsup:
Yes you will dear. I am going to try and make it after the Dev Cat meet, maybe via the Lions Layer Cake. :D
angelgirluk 28-05-2006, 06:34 PM Can I come?!!
I wish... maybe next time when I am all better :P Still snotty!

Some of us have known to frequent Fuel after the Dev Cat meet...... I think you can work out who they are :thumbsup:
happysherpa 29-05-2006, 12:57 PM would that just be you pete... altho.. during your last few attempts to actually arrive at Fuel ..have been failures.. do you need a map.. i know they have made lots of new changes on the inside.. but it still looks the same outside and its in the same location haha
SpiderPete 29-05-2006, 01:05 PM would that just be you pete... altho.. during your last few attempts to actually arrive at Fuel ..have been failures.. do you need a map.. i know they have made lots of new changes on the inside.. but it still looks the same outside and its in the same location haha
oooo get her....... lol, no I know where it is, and didn`t make it last night either, I fell asleep......... I don`t go all the time, although some people seem to think I live there, lol :) ... and no quite a few from Dev cat have been to Fuel, it just aint me.
djscottk 30-05-2006, 08:22 AM v. impressed with fuel's new look..
367squadron 30-05-2006, 02:21 PM Yeh i went last night and from what i saw in the trash palance was pretty good. I like the idea of only 1 room on less busier nights 'cos it keeps everyone closer together.
DJscott, saw your name on the flyer and thought 'oh god, not him again' :huh: but once again it was a good range of music last night! :thumbsup:

Gayham 01-06-2006, 03:21 PM I'm very dissapointed by the two rooms. I thought one was for bumming and one was for fisting. I walk in there to find trendy decor, lighting, visuals, and an eclectic mix of people. Honestly, I thought it was supposed to be gay. Bring back the good old days of the blue oyster bar with chains and swings and leather chaps. Thats gay. www.gayham.com

Gayham 02-06-2006, 05:57 PM haha so its not a mask?
What on earth are you talking about? Of course it is not...I'm very offended and must seek botox now. Listen when you get to my age you cant stop the wrinkles so yes it may look mask like but believe you me I'm all queen.
happysherpa 04-06-2006, 10:05 AM OMG Friday night at FUEL was amazing :thumbsup:
What i saw around me was soo Bizzare.. was it a dream?
A Tranny in a shopping trolley.. spinned around the dance floor by a twink in hot pants. A Dom female wearing leather with wips and chains.. dragging her sub male around on a dog lead. Gayham posing in a Pink leotard.. supporting a nice pear of white fluffy slippers..and a pink feather hair piece..
Am i going Crazy??
:hihi:
angelgirluk 04-06-2006, 11:05 PM And I missed this?!!! :( LOL
Didn't get to fuel this weekend after all (long story!)
But...
My sister went for the relaunch last week and said she's never been anywhere where she has experienced such a negataive attitude.Her husband was stopped by bouncers and asked if he was on drugs as he was looking dodgy (may i add my sister is a drugs officer with south yorkshire police as are nearly everyone in the group with them lol)
She was made to feel uncomfortable my a bitchy drag queen (the comments the dq made weren't your usual banter) The bar staff were pretty much the same and she generally felt the place had a bad atmosphere after how they had been treat. My sister and her husband have many gay friends and often go out to gay bars/clubs with them and say they have never felt this way about anywhere they've been not even in leeds!
Before everyone jumps on this post stating im bitching about fuel again i'm not i'm just passing on what happened. I feel v dissapointed that they were made to feel like this as my straight friends who went to fuel with me a few times were treat the same.
What hope have we got of everyone gay and straight being able to mix and be as one when time and time again straight people are made to feel like this in a gay venue.
I shall leave it with this...
Gay people want to be accepted for what they are and not feel as a seperate part of society so why do we make gay bars/clubs feel unwelcome to straight people that aren't the stereotypical fag hag or "metrosexual" In my opinion we are only making it harder to intergrate ourselves into society and to be seen as something acceptable if anything we are segregating ourselves further.

Should have sorted a raid by the drug squad and bitch slapped the drag queen :hihi:
phillip se5 05-06-2006, 11:36 AM Hi Guys,
This is my 1st post but i have been checking this page for a while, I used to live in Sheffield but now live in London but often come back to visit. I have been to Fuel a few times now and have to say that it is a breath of fresh air for the scene in Sheffield and about time there was a good gay venue in the city centre.
I do have to agree with the previous post, I went to Fuel a few weeks ago and the drag queens were horrendous! I know that part of being a drag queen is to have "attitude" but they were completely rude all night, dishing out dirty looks, only serving customers when they could be bothered and generally being self obsessed and annoying.
I still had a good night but left thinking that maybe hiring efficient bar staff with customer service training might be an option!
graffy 05-06-2006, 12:27 PM I remember posting months ago, in the early days of this thread, and being right impressed by the bar staff at fuel, friendly and all. I have to say that i do agree with the comments made above on the Drags behind bar. I went there a month ago with some friends and, as my mate went to his boyfriend to ask for a pound afetr we had ordered at the bar, that blonde drag shouted abuse at him, treating him as if he was about to go away without paying! Things like this make you feel unwelcomed and i have not been since! Shame because there are still some decent people working there (Dawn and Tony at the door are good examples), but i am fed up with the attitude of some of them, nobody's impressed because you work behind the bar at fuel, you know, so drop the attitude!
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 02:56 PM I've been going to Fuel more or less on a weekly basis since it opened and I remember being disheartened with there being a mix of dance and pop in the same room with pop finishing at roughly half 11 then having to stand dance for the rest of the night. I think the seperation of the two types of music is great but i feel that the quality of the two rooms is severely unequal, with the dance room being much superior in size and the pop room being much smaller and cramped and more appropriate for a chill out lounge rather than an actual room. I dont want to moan after the change because it is really good that Fuel have listened and seperated the music so we can have our favourite types all night, however it could be an idea to switch the rooms and have pop in one room one night then swap it over the next, particularly with Fridays and Saturdays. Saying this, i think i remember seeing on a flyer that the bigger room has pop on a Thursday night? I haven't been yet so I cant be sure. The drag queens do have a slight attitude and they do seem to favour the regulars which gets slightly annoying.
sparkymalark 05-06-2006, 03:31 PM I actually find the drag queens hilarious and they really make an effort with their make up and hair and outfits. I like the cheeky jibes I get from them, you just have to have whats called a sense of humour. If you are intimidated by the drag quuens then don't go to their bar!
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 03:40 PM P.S. Gayham is hilarious, its good to have him back.
djscottk 05-06-2006, 04:48 PM well its an unashamedly pop-infested monday, tonight at fuel!
make sure u are there from 10pm.

cant say ive noticed them having any attitude.. and if they in fact do it will only go with the costume. i shouldnt fret.
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 04:58 PM Actually thinking about it they don't. How unreliable and open to change am I? I saw one that has started working there on Saturdays last week without his costume and I nearly fainted at the difference!
babes5 05-06-2006, 05:00 PM OMG Friday night at FUEL was amazing :thumbsup:
What i saw around me was soo Bizzare.. was it a dream?
A Tranny in a shopping trolley.. spinned around the dance floor by a twink in hot pants. A Dom female wearing leather with wips and chains.. dragging her sub male around on a dog lead. Gayham posing in a Pink leotard.. supporting a nice pear of white fluffy slippers..and a pink feather hair piece..
Am i going Crazy??
:hihi:
we were there but missed it! :o
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 05:08 PM I was there and shuddering to think back, I actually attempted to sit in the trolley with the drag queen! Instead, I sat in a Waitrose one and was wheeled home by my friend. Honestly, nights at fuel transform into a big end of week ridiculous drunken embarassment lol.
happysherpa 05-06-2006, 06:03 PM i must admit the Drag queens can be a little frightening... esp when your shy and fridged like me... but once you get use to it..you except its just part of the entertainment.. you learn not to take it all serious.. and just laugh at them.
i think Demo made a brillient point about the gay scene segregating its self..from the straights.. maybe we should welcome them with open arms.. unless they have gay basher written on their forheads.. maybe Fuel should be encouraging a mix of gay and straight... or at least try it..to see if it works.
Im not liking the two rooms at all... the cheezy room.. is far from appropriate for lots of people..plus there is little room to dance... but the large dance room..which is less popular.. is nice and spacious.. hint hint.. maybe alternate pop and dance every night....
Otherwise.. Fuel is ace.. Loves it!!!
haggo_uk 05-06-2006, 06:08 PM yeeer harrrr
SpiderPete 05-06-2006, 07:46 PM well its an unashamedly pop-infested monday, tonight at fuel!
make sure u are there from 10pm.
xx
Well I am very much contemplating coming tonight just to meet you ...
anyne else going ?
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 08:07 PM I would but no friends would be interested so early after the weekend and I'd be scared of it being empty lol.
SpiderPete 05-06-2006, 08:10 PM I would but no friends would be interested so early after the weekend and I'd be scared of it being empty lol.
Why should emptyness scare you ?
JohnnyBoi 05-06-2006, 08:13 PM Because I'm an empty human being inside lol. Nah, I dont know, I just enjoy a big full atmosphere that's from weekends. Plus I have no one to go with tonight which would be slightly scary. I'm going again on Friday. I might try the Rusty night on Thursday as well.

I don`t have anyone to go with tonight, but I am going anyway :thumbsup:
SpiderPete 06-06-2006, 12:56 AM Oh dear, oh dear, what can I say, I was at Fuel tonight, and best save my comments for Wednesday night after the "Food Meet" on Tuesday, cause I know I am gonna upset a few people..
lets say my comments wont be a "bed of roses"
happysherpa 06-06-2006, 07:42 AM Come on Pete.. lets hear you rave on... tell us how fantastic your first night at Fuel was!!!
i have a good idea... maybe fuel should think about knocking the wall out..that splits the club into two rooms..making it into One large room..with a mix of pop and dance.. just an idea =o) haha
I think the club is missing an area where people can chill out.. you cant even hear each other speak =o(
Meaks 06-06-2006, 11:08 AM best save my comments for Wednesday night
Come on dear, spit it out...
Sounds like you had an interesting evening from what I hear. :)
sparkymalark 06-06-2006, 12:58 PM There is NO pleasing you lot. Moan about the drag queens, moan about the two rooms, moan about no chill out area. It's not Gatecrasher they are a small club and company with limited space and what they have done is great. The smaller room is good kitsch fun I like the cosy atmosphere and the campness of decor. The larger room is very sophisticated and a good venue for proper music. There should be a door policy to not let anyone who posts on this forum to enter.....ungrateful is what I would say to you lot. I praise the owners in what they have acheived in a very short space of time, they have not even been open a year yet!

How do you Fuel fans feel about Niche opening next door?
Well stab/bullet proof vests are fairly easy to get hold of nowadays so not an issue lol!
oh and Happysherpa you know my boyfriend apparently :)

Sparkymalark, if they banned anyone posting they may loose quite a lot of trade, including yourself :rolleyes:. I guess you mean ban the complainers.
Forums are a place to discuss and sadly it's human nature to often see the bad things. If we only said good things Sheffield Forum would be very boring. :hihi:
But Fuel do say they want possitives and negatives, they are plenty of both on this thread and long may it be so, ban freedom of speech you end up with oppression being in a gay community we best should know that oppression is bad...

On a more serious note knowing the issues that *niche* has had before think i'd be a bit scared stumbling out of fuel on a drunken friday night.
I'm not saying that everyone that goes to niche is out to cause trouble but unfortunatly as with anything theres a small minority that do.
I guess only time will tell as to wether the two can work side by side without any trouble

the Forum is a safe place to air our views.. it would be pretty boring in here..if we were all feeding back positive comments.. there wouldnt be much of a discussion lol Fuel are happy to ehar the complaints.. that way..they can keep improving the service and venue..making it better and better :D
Aww wow i didnt know i knew anyone from the forum.. who is ya boyfriend damo... how do i know him? say hi to him.. with lots of gay kisses haha :thumbsup:

niche does promote a bad impression.. with the large metal detectors outside.. and the extra large bouncers :| scares me a little bit.. so i tend to make a detour and approach Fuel from the opposite direction.. like a big pansey haha
Never heard about any trouble
He's called gareth he's from derby not sure how he knows of you but he does lol!
When niche used to be in it's old spot the police were always down there due to the trouble would hate to think it'd get to that outside fuel
happysherpa 06-06-2006, 04:56 PM fingers crossed things stay calm.. if not im sure the drags on stilts will step in..and sort things out.. would anyone dare mess with a bitchy chick with a d**k hahaha :hihi: :hihi:
Yeah i know gareth very well.. very good friend of mine..we go out alot to Nottingham to NG1 :)
ah right didn't know that bit and to say i've been with him nearly 13 months!
sparkymalark 06-06-2006, 05:09 PM In regards to Niche...
Did there not used to be shootings outside Niche!?!?! From what I remember years ago their name is always linked to trouble!
happysherpa 06-06-2006, 05:10 PM well when i say we go all the time.. i think ive been twice haha but i normally see the gang during Poptastic.. im also good friends with his friend Brett

I am a poster on this forum, and [u]I [/i]haven't been critical about Fuel... In fact I had a fantastic time on the relaunch night, and said so, quite enthusiastically. I hope you don't think I should be barred!
and yes, re the metal detector thingies at niche .. the night of fuel's relaunch, I saw the machine that folks had to walk through to get into niche, and I thought.. "jeez! thanks but no-thanks!" it was daunting. H-S:- the trouble you refer to was when niche was at its "old" venue.
PT
sparkymalark 06-06-2006, 06:04 PM I heard that they have just used the name and actually all the Niche DJ's and the loyal crowd have gone to the Adelphi. Still you wouldn't catch me going into Niche EVER. However I have never seen any trouble outside...I asked the doormen at Fuel about this the other week and they said they get on really well with Niche's doorstaff...so it's nice to know they work together to avoid trouble...although I have noticed more of a police presence than ever before outside both clubs
djscottk 06-06-2006, 06:25 PM Oh dear, oh dear, what can I say, I was at Fuel tonight, and best save my comments for Wednesday night after the "Food Meet" on Tuesday, cause I know I am gonna upset a few people..

ooooh do tell lol :thumbsup:
a few of my mates went to niche where it was and they've said that all that's niche about the new niche is the name and they now goto adelphi hence the trouble a couple of weeks ago
dannyfuel 06-06-2006, 06:45 PM Just wanted to thank you all for coming and making the opening party amazing. we still know we have changes to make and improvements will continue to happen indefinately.
we are watching the balance between pop and funky at the weekend and will certainly consider a room swap on one night if that is what will make people happy. however we need to give all of the nights some time to bed in to be able to make a educated choice.
it will still take us a good while to get fuel to where we want it but i am sure you will agree that we are moving in the right direction.
thanks for all of your support and let us know of any problems.
hugs
D
:thumbsup:
ps. please let me know about any specific fuel team members that are rude / horrible directly at danny@fuel-sheffield.co.uk as we won't have it and i will get the manager to sort it straight away if i am aware.
angelgirluk 06-06-2006, 06:47 PM Please, please, please tell me this isn't true?? Niche isn't reaaalllly moving next door is it?!
djscottk 06-06-2006, 07:56 PM Please, please, please tell me this isn't true?? Niche isn't reaaalllly moving next door is it?!
i shouldnt worry about Niche moving anywhere.. u know people go to a club to spend time inside the venue. so, bearing that in mind, i dont think it will affect fuel at all... and also, Niche has historically stayed open way later than fuel is licensed to do... so people from both clubs, shouldnt be clashing while waiting for cabs etc.
hope everyone who was at fuel last night enjoyed themselves, including the physically minute, but vocally gigantic lesbian (u know who u are!) :rant: who got a bit hysterical because the last song wasnt a hazell dean number!!!:rant:
:thumbsup:
SpiderPete 07-06-2006, 01:28 AM Come on Pete.. lets hear you rave on... tell us how fantastic your first night at Fuel was!!!

Oh, its not fair! I wanna know! :P

sparkymalark 07-06-2006, 04:05 PM I want to pull his mask off as well! I was told once by a random lady that he's quite good looking underneath!
I met him once too and he is not quite good looking he is very good looking! Gayham please say hello to me again I well fancy you (and I told you my forum name!) xx
JohnnyBoi 07-06-2006, 04:21 PM I'm going to have to look into this lol.
happysherpa 07-06-2006, 05:02 PM he definitly is fit... i auditioned for MRgayuk..along side the famous Gayham.. and behind the screen (while we were all awkwardly stripping down to our underpants) there he was in all his glory.. he looks very similar to his mask haha

djscottk 07-06-2006, 05:38 PM Has anyony been to the Fuel in Hull? They are quite different!
so im led to believe, but no i havent been myself...
happysherpa 07-06-2006, 06:20 PM ive been... its alot different... wen you enter in the main door.. it leads into the dance, R&B room.. the bar is directly in front of you.... then you go through a dodgy tunnel.. to the outside..which is the Cheezy room..there is a whole in the wall.. where the DJ stands.. there is a huge pole in the center... where the girls or the queens can pole dance..
Sheffield Fuel.. is loads better...
SpiderPete 07-06-2006, 09:50 PM Oh, its not fair! I wanna know! :P
I am starting to worry about you Ryan ....... ya obsessed with Gayham .... :o
potsed by Drama Queen gayham

You`re just a drama queen dear :thumbsup:
Divine toy 08-06-2006, 11:16 AM Well when Gayham's making such videos as 'gag on cox' on his website what do u expect!!!! It's enough to make anyone fancy him with his very experienced technique
JohnnyBoi 08-06-2006, 03:02 PM I hope that was sarcasm at work lol
Divine toy 08-06-2006, 04:03 PM I hope that was sarcasm at work lol
Im being deadly serious- ya better believe it!:hihi:
JohnnyBoi 08-06-2006, 04:35 PM Hmmmmmmmmmmm...

Well all a can say is I hope ya were bleedin well oiled on each occasion!:D
I've not been to fuel since it got done up i hope its good but i liked it how it was before (so camp) lol
SpiderPete 08-06-2006, 08:36 PM I've not been to fuel since it got done up i hope its good but i liked it how it was before (so camp) lol
Oh its even camper, esp in the Trashy Palace, with chandaliers and all.
SpiderPete 08-06-2006, 11:33 PM Well here we go, my first visit to the new re-furbished Fuel was last Monday, 29th May, I for some unknown reason, decided to go on a Monday, just one of those crazy things I do, maybe it was just to see what the place looked like empty, or to see what Scotty looked like, anyway I went ..........
The 2 rooms idea well when i walked in it was like, OMG whats happened here.
The Trash Palace Oh dear, that name has to go, its awful, anyway the place sectioned off looked quite good, there was a lot of red about, so if ya dont like red, ya stuck really, the dance floor looked a bit small, nice idea about the dj box, at least you can see who is spinning the tunes.
The Monday music Not my cup of tea, but then I wasnt drunk at the time.
The toilets I have heard so much about these toilets from this thread, and when I walked in, thankfully it was empty, my first reaction was OMG whats this, although they have frosted the bottom part up, you can still see if you stand in the corners, they are very sleezy.
Monday night Gawd the place was a bit empty, i was chatting to 2 guys in Lions Lair, and they were visiting Fuel for the first time, they could have picked a better night, but I suppose Monday isnt everyone`s taste, so glad in a way the place is split into 2, or it would have looked really bad with a large one room with hardly any people.
Drinks priceThe worst thing about Fuel, is the price of lager, does put me off a bit. I know some queens can make a half a coke last all night, but not this one.
Overall opinion I think I am gonna have to try it on a busy night, but wont be in a rush to do it, that will happen on the 17th June. Was a bit disapointed to be honest.
I have a friend who is coming over from Stockton on Tees on Saturday and to be honest I would probably take him to Dempseys........... that about says it all :) ... but remember these are only my opinions, and I know everyone has their own opinion about the place.
happysherpa 08-06-2006, 11:47 PM but whats your opinion on Scotty.. did you see him.. we didnt want to hear you ramble on a about Fuel haha
lisa&stacey 08-06-2006, 11:48 PM fuel is a good night, at least there is no trouble
happysherpa 08-06-2006, 11:49 PM yeah i guess... its the safest place in sheffield..unless you scared of Boys in drags
SpiderPete 08-06-2006, 11:49 PM but whats your opinion on Scotty.. did you see him.. we didnt want to hear you ramble on a about Fuel haha
Scotty already knows my opinion via PM :thumbsup:
happysherpa 08-06-2006, 11:50 PM yes.. but that doesnt help the rest of us.. PM me
lisa&stacey 08-06-2006, 11:51 PM am 100 % straight

Happysherpa you're pure filth!
Shocked at a bad review from spiderpete! dunno if i'm gonna bother going now!
Meaks 09-06-2006, 06:11 PM I doubt a Monday was a good night to give a true idea of what its like atmosphere wise.
I haven't been in aaaages and am hoping to have a vada soon.
Everytime i've been thursday friday and saturday nights there's been no atmosphere compared to places i've been elsewhere as much as i've tried i've never really enjoyed a night at fuel
Meaks 09-06-2006, 06:25 PM Everytime i've been thursday friday and saturday nights there's been no atmosphere compared to places i've been elsewhere as much as i've tried i've never really enjoyed a night at fuel
Maybe you haven't been drunk enough... :hihi: ;)

Yet you keep on coming back....
as i've said i've tried it out hoping it was just an off night but blatently not
SpiderPete 10-06-2006, 12:19 PM I doubt a Monday was a good night to give a true idea of what its like atmosphere wise.
I haven't been in aaaages and am hoping to have a vada soon.
Yes you are right, I shall try again when it is busy for more comments, might even be going tonight if I can drag my friend in, last time he came down from Liverpool he didn`t like it :o
But then he is a indie person.
Meaks 10-06-2006, 08:38 PM Well I think I might join you tonight, unless of course you decide to go to Corp. :)
SpiderPete 10-06-2006, 08:48 PM Well I think I might join you tonight, unless of course you decide to go to Corp. :)
Ok dear, I am getting ready now, my friend has landed in Sheffield, meet in Lions Lair
Meaks 10-06-2006, 08:52 PM Lions Layer. Oooh. Mitch!
Gayham 10-06-2006, 10:50 PM I think they will defo do an indie night soon, I hope so, can you imagine me rocking out to indie tracks in my catsuit??!! xx
Meaks 11-06-2006, 12:59 PM Dempsey's was it? :o :hihi:
djscottk 11-06-2006, 02:11 PM LOL peter... there is just no pleasing u at all now, is there?
thankfully, ur just a microcosm of the scene as a whole.
why dont u just admit, u loved the kylie i stuck on for u and ill try to describe those moves u were strutting on the dancefloor? hmm...
also.. for a room the management of the venue have called the 'Trash Palace' - pray tell what u expect??? it lives up to its name in spectacular fashion.
to have relaunched its-self TWICE in less than a 2 year period... Fuel clearly cares about customers viewpoints.. but, i hope they realise now there will always be certain stalwarts and their fickle old ways, who im afraid they will never be able to please...

djscottk 11-06-2006, 02:26 PM I have a friend who is coming over from Stockton on Tees on Saturday and to be honest I would probably take him to Dempseys........... that about says it all ...
Yes you are right, I shall try again when it is busy for more comments, might even be going tonight if I can drag my friend in, last time he came down from Liverpool he didn`t like it :o
But then he is a indie person.
one minute hes almost a geordie... next, hes scouse, and forced to endure dempseys.
poor lad.:thumbsup:
Divine toy 11-06-2006, 02:36 PM god!! we saw this around the same time as the ark.

happysherpa 11-06-2006, 05:03 PM well i rememebered my last experience of Dempseys... id forgotten my membership card..so asked the door man if he had a record of members in the book.. he said.. nooo you will have to pay full price...has a none member... so i decided to take myself and my 7 friends else where (ie Fuel)
Dj_Shadowman 11-06-2006, 05:06 PM Off to work now, if anyone spots me come and say hello.
angelgirluk 12-06-2006, 01:28 PM Was sat out in the beer garden at Lions Lair on Saturday night before heading to the Corp and it was sooooooooooo nice!!!!!!!!!! Decided to give FUEL a miss, kinda a bit unsure about going now Niche has opened up next door. Has there been any trouble yet???
SpiderPete 12-06-2006, 01:31 PM Was sat out in the beer garden at Lions Lair on Saturday night
You might have seen us in Lions lair, we were there all night from 9pm onwards, and stayed until midnight and then headed off to Dempseys
JohnnyBoi 12-06-2006, 02:31 PM Well I went to fuel on Friday and it was relitavely busy but it hasn't quite seen the same crowds since the re-launch night, or even before when there was one room. I wonder if Saturday nights are the busiest or if some people have gone elsewhere?
angelgirluk 12-06-2006, 02:45 PM Hi Pete
I was out there from about 10:45 left about half 11 - I was a bit gobby, sat with lots of men lol playing at swapping chairs (kept chair swapping as people went to the loo or bar LOL)... Were u by any chance sat in the left hand corner of the garden? If so we were more or less next to you at the top of the likkle step! :)
angelgirluk 12-06-2006, 02:46 PM Well I went to fuel on Friday and it was relitavely busy but it hasn't quite seen the same crowds since the re-launch night, or even before when there was one room. I wonder if Saturday nights are the busiest or if some people have gone elsewhere?
Well 'my crowd' so to speak have started to go elsewhere, yep! Purely because of Niche!
Meaks 12-06-2006, 02:57 PM Were u by any chance sat in the left hand corner of the garden? If
I was with him and we were sitting inside, at the big table in the corner (by the toilets).
Would have gone outside but it was too busy! Was well hot in there too. :(
angelgirluk 12-06-2006, 03:02 PM It was boiling you're right!! I had a fab chat with 2 ladies in the loos about where the loo roll was.... one wasn't you was it Meaks? ;) I looked like a total drowned rat, my hair/head was so hot!
JohnnyBoi 12-06-2006, 04:00 PM Well 'my crowd' so to speak have started to go elsewhere, yep! Purely because of Niche!
That's a bit of a shame cause me and my friends have had no trouble at all from the Niche crew, but others might have, I don't know.
djscottk 12-06-2006, 05:06 PM It was boiling you're right!! I had a fab chat with 2 ladies in the loos about where the loo roll was.... one wasn't you was it Meaks? ;) I looked like a total drowned rat, my hair/head was so hot!
to my knowledge there has been no issue at all with niche people...
please be aware there is ample security at fuel to ensure your safety both inside and outside of the venue...
the only thing u are in danger of is the cheese ill be playing tonight xx

happysherpa 18-06-2006, 11:23 AM Didnt see you out at Fuel :( altho i did suffer severe serious swollen red eyes.. from the local foliage.. so might not have been able to see you :( :(
LEFT FEELING MISERABLE
SpiderPete 18-06-2006, 01:41 PM Well fuEL was fun last night, we were in the Trash Palace all night, apart from one visit to the other side, which I must say looks completely different and was quite empty.
The Trash Palace was the place to be last night, was a bit more fuller, and got a bit drunk as usual, and some queen made me spill some drink on my top.
But all in all it was fun.
Soz didn`t see u Happysherpa there.
JohnnyBoi 18-06-2006, 02:09 PM Yea, last night was a good night. Me and my friend got a bit drunk and excited and laid down on the dancefloor during Born to Handjive, kicking our legs in the air at each other.
Meaks 18-06-2006, 07:42 PM Didnt see you out at Fuel :( altho i did suffer severe serious swollen red eyes.. from the local foliage.. so might not have been able to see you :( :(
LEFT FEELING MISERABLE
I saw you dear! Sorry I didn't come and say hi, but didn't get much chance as we left quite early and you looked quite mithered. Hope all is OK. :| x
Meaks 18-06-2006, 07:57 PM Well I finally made it to the new fuEL, and have to say I was impressed.
Didn't really spend much time in the main room (which was looking good if not a bit loud), but found the Trash Palace to be extremely camp and mincing so had a good laugh! It seemed far busier in there even though its the smaller room. Gayham was, of course, on form and the place seemd to have a fun atmosphere.
Oh and the 'mirrors' in the bogs are a lot of fuss about nothing. Some queens..! :D
So Peter dear... did you pull after we left you? ;)
Has the drag act worked in Blackpool, I'm sure I recognised her.
SpiderPete 18-06-2006, 08:00 PM So Peter dear... did you pull after we left you? ;)
Stop asking silly questions, lol
Meaks 18-06-2006, 08:10 PM Stop asking silly questions, lol
Half your age again was he? ;) :D
SpiderPete 18-06-2006, 08:12 PM Half your age again was he? ;) :D
:suspect: you lost me there, I went home alone as usual :thumbsup:

yes i was very very frustrated... my eyes hurt so much and i couldnt stop sneezing :( :(
I stood watching my friends.. dancing and having fun.. i was so envious.. so grabbed my man.. and minced into the night :D
feeling rather rough today... can almost see out the slits in my eye lids :help:
djscottk 19-06-2006, 04:16 PM u know u should all be at fuel this evening.
it will make your lives all so much more complete. :thumbsup:
Gayham 19-06-2006, 04:59 PM Well I would say it was nice to see you all but you weren't gay enough...well Meaks is halfway nearly as gay as me....
Meaks 21-06-2006, 02:44 PM Well I would say it was nice to see you all but you weren't gay enough...well Meaks is halfway nearly as gay as me....
Only halfway? :o :|

Respect for their punters would have done.
Dj_Shadowman 02-07-2006, 02:22 AM Respect for their punters would have done.
Plastic glasses are down to health & safety really.
If you walked into a pub full of people (how shall we say this) slightly annoyed at the result of the england match, would you want them having glass in their hands ?
Looking at the morons in town tonight, I know I wouldnt.

I refuse to be baited by the england performance, or I may get angry and take it out on something.........
Anyway, was in fuEL last night, and it was a bit quiet for a saturday, maybe the football kept them away, the Trash Palace seems the more busier of the 2 rooms.
