There have been quite few different clubs in this stretch of building over the years. One of the best known in the early 60s was the Cubik, where several later famous pop bands played.

That`s right mate and there was a brutal murder committed in there,either postmaster or night man was bludgeoned to death,in the very same building.I have often had arguments with (shall we say the old school)that the post office was in Argyle St and always has been.They did not like being corrected on thier own history by a younger generation.lol.

You're not wrong there Dava, It was quite grim in there at times. When the upstairs was called New Orleans downstairs was called Basin Street

Ah that`s right,that was the other name I was trying to think off,and it was bloody pitch black.Do you remember at all when they had a burger bar down there,we used to call them blood burgers,cos that`s what used to ooze out of them.EEEEEEEEWWWWWW.
