Barfly - London

Legends are normally a long time in the making. Think of legendary music venues and names like the Hacienda, Marquee and Cavern spring to mind for the key role they played in nascent bands’ careers. However, in each case the passing of the years has only served to heap more mystery on the already epoch-making gigs to which they bore witness. It’s no mean achievement then, that in a few short years the Barfly has earned a status which ranks it alongside these illustrious names from the past.

It wasn’t always so. The beginnings, in a pub on the outskirts of Camden in late 1996, were as humble as the subsequent years have been impressive. In those early days the stench of the less than salubrious toilets would have been enough to put off even the most hardened gig-goer, had it not been for the quality of music pounding out from the PA in the Falcon’s dark, dingy back room. But soon-to-be-big bands were, from day one, a key ingredient, bringing with them an endless line of discerning music fans. Stereophonics played several times in their early, formative years, as did the likes of Death in Vegas, Feeder, Coldplay, Muse, Doves and… just about any other band who’ve tasted success in the last five years! As London listings magazine Time Out put it, Barfly was (and still is) firmly established as THE place to go to “glimpse the stars of the future”. Even Noel Gallagher (never a man to mince his words!) was moved to comment that Barfly was “ Ten years ahead of anybody ’s time”.

A move, in March 2000, to the Monarch, a few hundred yards away at the other end of Camden, has only served to make things better, the larger venue allowing even more music fans to cram inside. If a visit to the toilets no longer leaves one urgently seeking out for the nearest medical facility, still the expectant, electrified atmosphere of the place is the same as its always been. More so, if anything. Since the move, Barfly has played host to, amongst others, The Strokes, The Vines, Starsailor, Wheatus, Elbow, The Cooper Temple Clause and The Electric Soft Parade, not to mention being the main venue for filming of the still-talked-about Barfly Sessions TV series (which included the likes of Coldplay, Muse, JJ72 and Badly Drawn Boy). Not that big names are what the Barfly is exclusively about. A policy of nurturing new talent has always been key to the ethos, with a total of some 1000 plus bands passing through the venue each and every year. Not all will make it big, of course, but all who play have passed a stringent quality control process before being allowed the opportunity to perform on the hallowed stage, ensuring that, even if the names are unfamiliar, the 50,000 customers a year will be guaranteed one thing – quality music.

For a team with such obvious talent spotting ability, expansion was always on the cards. A second Barfly, in Cardiff, opened its doors in April 2001, the objective being to bring the same idea - local talent mixed with more established touring bands - to a new and eager audience. Success in Cardiff has lead to the opening of further venues, in Glasgow and Liverpool, as well as the purchase of a fifth in the shape of Fibbers in York. All continue to support local talent, and are established as cornerstones of the music scene in their respective areas.

In addition to the venues, Barfly is also responsible for spawning The Fly magazine, which, since its launch in March 1999, has become established as one of, if not THE, most important new music magazines in the country.

With a many-pronged attack in its mission to bring good music to the nation, the Barfly legend looks set to grow and grow…

Tel: 0161 2368800

From the outside, Napoleon's looks quite unprepossessing and perhaps the reason why many people fail to venture inside is because you cannot see the interior from the street, giving the bar an unnerving sense of mystery.

However, Napoleon's must be doing something right since it can claim to be the oldest gay club in Manchester.

The club has only changed ownership once since it was opened by Colin Rigby and the late Foo Foo Lamarr back in December 1972 and few venues can boast such continuity.

Current manager Michael Roscoe proudly claims that he knows the first names of most of his punters giving the club a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.

The venue plays music from the last decade on the ground floor, camp and cheesy tunes upstairs and more laidback sounds in the recently refurbished basement.

The Après Club
