    Recently opened, Bunker's marketing strategy seems to be pull people in with super cheap drinks…read moredeals, and with prices starting at a quid I'm sold. With prices like that it's unsurprising that this is a bit of a student haunt, at least on the night I went along anyway. The Bristol uni hordes manage to fill up the three rooms and garden out the back, creating a proper buzz on a Friday night. They also make a long queue, which combined with the five pounds asked for some nights makes this place slightly less attractive that it otherwise would be. That the only criticism I can think of is because this place is popular should tell you that you won't be disappointed by a night out at Bunker.

    I am literally torn in half with The Bunker. One one side, its cheap and cheerful and always…read morepromises a decent night out without breaking the bank. On the other side I have been severely let down in the past. I will explain...... Situated near Clifton Triangle and Park Street, The Bunker nightclub is open 6 nights a week with drinks starting from £1, popular DJ's, 3 rooms and a very large smoking garden. The queuing can be quite ridiculous so make sure you do not get there to late. Music ranges from chart music to dance and drum and bass with a raised seating area and large dance floor. The toilets are fairly small so expect a queue. On one particular night, they had let in far too many people on the venues legal capacity resulting in a 'power cut', which then the venue turned very much into 'a war bunker' with emergency lighting and scared people. Magically all the staff swiftly disappeared and there was literally no-one to tell us what was happening. Everyone started to pile towards the stairs to leave and no joke I was almost crushed to death and £5 out of pocket from the entrance fee. I was not happy!

    "What do you want to do tonight?" "Umm... I dunno.... Moles?"…read more The nightlife in Bath is limited. Local pubs, trendy student bars, tourist spots. Sometimes you just want to see a live gig or dance to music that isn't Rhianna. Moles to the rescue! Theme nights and live gigs abound in this unique little spot. The club is a great idea, but its not always executed well. It's in the basement of a big house on George Street, in what I'm assuming was the servants' area. Sounds cool, right? But when you've got dozens and dozens of bodies crammed into an unventilated basement, it gets hot. When it gets hot, these bodies sweat. You then have to get very drunk so that you won't notice other people's sweat dropping from the ceiling onto your flushed forehead. As for the gigs, I've been to two live shows here, the Dead 60's and another for a local band. Both were great and I was so relieved to find a spot where I could jump, sing, dance, and listen to live music with other people who appreciated it. Music is played after the show, but whoever DJ's clearly goes for novelty value rather than skillful sets. Madonna, followed by Random 90's R&B Song, Sex Pistols, N'Sync, etc. Depending on your level of inebriation and silliness, it can actually be fun to dance to! I think Tuesday nights is "Cheese" night, when they purposely play this type of music.

    If you're planning a night out in Bath, there's one of two places you're likely to end up; Back to…read moreMine or Moles. Due to the ridiculously strict council rules that clubs must adhere to a certain noise level and close at a certain time, there is hardly anywhere for the youngsters of Bath to have a good time on a Saturday night. But Moles tries its best and, on the whole, succeeds to give clubbers great live music in an intimate venue. There's always a friendly party atmosphere to be found, but I wouldn't recommend anyone with claustrophobia. It's friendly for a reason - there's no escape from mingling with strangers at this tiny club. Over the years Moles has had Portishead, The Smiths, The Cure and PJ Harvey grace their stage (to name but a few) so it's a perfect place to hear an up and coming star.
