Garage/Campus Opening Weekend

New club The Garage opened this weekend with the bar Campus located underneath it. The premises are somewhat nostalgic for me having previously been a gig venue where I've seen many great bands before it was closed when Mama (owned by the HMV Group) closed all their venues under 1000 capacity. Opening on the Friday me and the girls from work went on the Saturday. It was packed hot and sweaty, just how I like it. Almost impossible to get a drink at the bar though. The venue has not changed at all since its gig days, I think it may have been a club back then as well, however I was below drinking age so I never knew it in that capacity.

Top: £30 Brat and Suzie
Skirt: £14.99 H & M
Headband: £15 Accessorize

I discovered the brand Brat and Suzie in More magazine about a year ago I find their animal tops hilarious. A dog, riding a penny farthing ,wearing a top hat and braces? Surreal heaven to my eyes, it's the world I want to live in where the Squirrels wear monocles and everybody has pocket watches. I would have a smashing time ringing my bike bell at my passing doggy friend.

Unfortunately I can't ride a bike. Back to reality, oops there goes gravity.
Garage already run a successful club in Glasgow which I've been to a few times and loved so I was excited for this. Unsurprisingly the drinks in Aberdeen weren't as cheap but were very reasonable and I have heard nothing but great reviews for Campus. Opening in time for freshers week (17th Sept) I hope this club is here to stay.
