Well said, its incredibly boring to hear someone harp on continuously about how better it was in their day, how such and such a club was far better than another. It reeks of small minded petty arrogance. Bowlers was an institution for a lot of people on here, because in many cases it was their first experience of dance music, as Ark probably was for others.
I went to both, Bowlers never floated my boat, I preferred it at the Pleasuredrome, and I always considered Ark a poor mans Kaos / Soak, never liked it, on the few occasions I went it was full of scroats
The Hacienda was far better though

LOL!!! Have to say I thought the same, didn't particuarly like the music, thought it was trying to be something that had already been and gone.
But thats my opinion, I'm sure theres people who thought the Hac was a load of toss and full of dickheads.

Youve completely missed my point. Im not knocking either club, if people think that Ark was the be all and end all then thats their perogative.
Im merely giving my opinion, which Im entitled to, eg, IMO I preferred Life at the Pleasuredrome, some people I know from back home really liked it at Bowlers when it opened
The thread, as Danny C pointed out, is about Bowlers. What is the point in saying "But Ark was miles better...." It wasnt even in the same City
pauly p said:There should be an Ark vs Bowlers thread.
IMO they were both to be avoided at the time
