| Hey all. Im from the Ol' US, and im going to be in england/scotland for about a month this year before I head off to southern europe. I was wondering if I could get a succint clear list of places to go for great clubs. Ill be travelling extensively so anywhere is the limit :) I need to know dress code to like can I bring tennis shoes/sneakers? Some places dont like you to do that. Any help on this would be great! top of the day to you guvnahs ;) (hey im English descendant I can talk like that!) |

Undoubtedly you'll wanna go to Gatecrasher (Sheffield or London) during our stay. If your coming during the summer months you'll probably be able to go to a festival (SSS, Creamfields, GG).
A trip to Godskitchen (Birmingham) will prolly be worth it too. Mebbe Passion (Coalville) and Slinky (Bournemouth, Bristol) if you're into it a bit harder.
At the clubs above I think they all let you in with trainers, if you wanna go to some lesser known clubs then you'll need a pair of proper shoes. Some places also insist on smart clubbing wear, GC and GK dont. |

Yeah wear what the hell you want for Crasher, Godskitchen, Promise, Sugarshack, Slinky etc. People go in all sorts, from mock up TV screens on their heads to cyber gear to anything you can think of. Then there's those of us that just go for the music in a t-shirt :D For smaller clubs, ask on this board. If it's a trance club, one of us will know about it and will be able to answer.
For the festivals obviously it's wear what you want. For Summer Sound System, all the UK bunch are going as hippies. For Global Gathering, we are considering going as Monks.
I shouldn't need to list the lineup for Global Gathering or Summer Sound System by now, but if you need any other festival lineups, just ask. |

Not quite :) Most are pretty relaxed but you can't wear whatever you like. Trainer are OK but be careful at Godskitchen because they're very picky. They seem to want you to be either in cyber, or smart urban/clubwear (eg smart trainers, combats, smart t-shirt or shirt). Take a pair of shoes with you to wear just in case, last time I went to Godskitchen they didn't like my trainers and asked me to show them what I was wearing under by coat. It was a plain black t-shirt and they were OK in the end. Jeans are pretty much a no-no at all of them, but you'll get away with light denim. It's worth remembering that if a club is unexpectedly busy one night, they're going to have to turn some people away from the door and they'll use the dresscode as the first excuse to do this.
All in all though don't worry, as long as you don't look scruffy and your trainers aren't covered in e then you'll be OK. Let us know when you're here and we'll have a TA meetup. |
