New Glasgow Club
A new metal club has opened in Glasgow as an 

alternative to the Cathouse on a Saturday night. Here's what the organiser has to say:
"Yes, Glasgow is once again going to have a GOOD rock club, that will actually play good music! SignalToNoise opens within a month at G1, Mitchell Lane, Glasgow. (Left turn off Argyle Street after you pass the KFC/Bookshop/Video Arcade with Central Station behind and west of you- There's also an entrance on Union Street, just up and across from that other place...) Entry will be £4 10:30pm til 11:30pm, and £5 after, with £1 off with flyers at all times- flyers will be found in most places around Glasgow, or soon to be downloadable from the website. Music policy will be "Ask, and ye shall recieve- so long as ye don't like Backstreet Boys or ABBA etc."
Check the website for more info.
RECENT UPDATE: I think it's all fallen through.
