Agreed. Only ever been there for events, MOS, GodsKitchen etc.

Who ever designed the place was an architectural genius. Either someone else will take over, or it will remain unused for years to come.

Has been great when it's been rammed for music events. Not a fan of the usual Sat night sUpER kRuP or emPiRE... or whatever gangsta name the night is called now. Needs to remain so the hard fucks of perth can shoot and stab each other on Sat nights and you know where not to go.

Whoever buys this venue is gonna run it as a club as well, so I doubt it will just sit there unused. What sort of club they'll make out of it, who knows. I only ever gone there for Armin and other events, hardly ever been there on usual saturdays. But every single time I've been there, without fail, I spotted John Kizon haha.


The incident led The West Australian to investigate the company’s ownership structure in a probe which revealed it was part-owned by a mysterious British Virgin Islands company called Beautex Offshore

Ah, me good old tax cheat haha.

Hate the place, but would suck to see it go because then all gangstas and people who just want to stab and punch on will filter down into the other clubs, its better to bottle them up in one place imo.

End of the day if it sells, its going to still be a club, not like your going to turn it into a child care centre.

As for saturday nights, as of the 15th, they will be changing to Pulse... electro and house etc. About time there was a change.. hopefully it brings a new crowd and revitalises the place.

Rumour has it, there's 2 potential buyers, owners of the Rise(Which apparently is Italian(Not saying mafia as i'm not 100% certain)) or owners of Voodoo/Rocket Room(Which apparently is Australian(Not saying Bikies as i'm not 101% certain))

Only been there once to see The Mars Volta. I loved the setup of it and commented on how i was keen to go there on a normal weekend but still wouldn't due to its rep. Also know 2 chicks that work there so could of got cheap drinks.

Owner of Rise isn't mafia lol. He's Italian royalty, I went to school with his sons.

Considered buying it a while ago (3years) and re-developing the site. Don't be so sure it will stay as a club if it does get purchased.

Apparently theres another in the race. Apparently looking at combining it with a whole Northbridge link/entertainment precinct project, following the sinking of the railway. Who knows though.

thats upstairs, downstairs on the main stage will still be your sat night gangsta shit.

sucks abit coz my two mates just got the pulse gig, could only end up doing it for a few weeks now.

fantastic venue. structually amazing, nothing else like it in perth

and it has a CRANKING sound system, when they give it curry the base that place can produce is phenonimal.

Plus the outside roof place in a corner that doesnt smell like smoke is a good place to get some fresh air/take a piss

There was even a casino on the top level at some stage!

ps they DO have a rather interesting corporate structure. being fascinated by all things accounting i wonder how they moved money from here to the BVI account without kicking up a storm.

used to love metro's fo the DnB gigs, was an unreal feeling to b off chops down the front then turn round and look up and just c a wall of ppl goin to the roof all rippin it up.
The set up was great as there was plenty of places you could dance up a storm wit ur mates still have a good view of the stage but not have bulk carnts tryin to barge past ya. Plus plenty of step you could sit under and gurn hahahaha.

Doubt i'll miss it a i havent been to a gig or even into NB for over a year now absolutly to many crack heads

Its funny how everyone says its full of homie gs... I worked there for like a year on the door and we never let baggy jeans homie gs in once we got our dress standards up. It was probably the best dressed club in perth and there was less fights than like bar120 and other venues. Just the music was rnb which was crap.

Its the best venue in perth for sure and hopefully someone will buy it and redo the upstairs areas and play some better music :D

TJ
10-11-2008, 08:28 AM
You dont need to wear baggy jeans to walk around in "crews" intimidating people etc dude.

I love my hip hop etc but wouldnt go to metros on a Sat night just for those reasons.

The events there always rock though. AVB last year was one of the best nights out ever.

Metros Perth has the best sound system out of any other club
easily the best club in perth
I only go when the events are on like Armin Van Buuren, Godskitchen, Gatecrasher etc

maybe because im asian, but ive never felt intimidated at metros, even when weve got a bunch of asian guys claiming to be dragon boys outside wanting to punch on

i really dont see why everyone causes such a fuss about it, sure its got a bit of history but ive seen worse shit go down at metros freo, but every time ive gone there its preety cruisy, hardly see many fights there nor other shit

that said upstairs in that little mini bar metros freo, on the right of the dj stage, everytime i walk past there there looks to be some hard carnts in there, definatly guys you dont wnat to mess with

apart from going to a few events at metro city ive only been there once on a normal sat night, it was 5 years ago and i was 17 at the time lol. majority was asian/indian etc but was still alot of white people, even saying that i did not see one fight, one bit of trouble, didnt see anyone get kicked out. doesnt really say much coz ive only been there once, loved the atmosphere though the huge sound setup was awesome and having a kebab shop in the club was the bomb!

im actually heading there this sat night but, so will see what its like. my mates most likely playing at pulse as well so be supporting them, me and a few friends had planned to check it out anyway coz we hadnt been for so long just worked out well that my other mates got the pulse gig.

It seems every Perth nightclub changes 'management' every 2 days. Must be a good stable industry to be involved in
