Change of venue...

Somethings change isn't good.
I went to Eat Your Greens at El Mocambo on Saturday night with the Girlfriend and another friend. I was dead tired on Saturday night after spending all day watching some bad hockey in Brampton, but I was looking forward to going out. I mean I've enjoyed Eat Your Greens at Neutral on the occasions that I have gone, but I hadn't gone since they changed venues.
We got there a little early and had to hear some bad Guns N' Roses imitation band peform before Eat Your Greens started. But once it did, I was disappointed. It wasn't the same. The crowd was different and even though it was the same DJ, it seemed different. It was too airy, too sparse, too cool. I mean Neutral is dark, hot, and packed which adds to the allure.
It reminds me of the time I used to go Industry, which in my opinion was the best club that's existed in my lifetime in Toronto. I mean it was out of the way in King West, it was always packed and the floors were dirty. There weren't any skanky whores or macho guys there. It wasn't a pickup joint. It was a place to enjoy good music and have fun. And when it closed down, other clubs tried to replicate the atmosphere, but they didn't and they haven't come close since then.
