Angel pub on Coldharbour Lane becomes arty community space run by Brick Box

If you were honest, you'd admit that the tarpaulin went up because you'd bunged some money to the council.

Maybe the Princes Trust bunged them a grant?
Give em a grant to fuck it up - then another one to hide the results if there is a danger of it appearing on international TV!

 

[Kanda]

It's one thing to suggest that someone may not be entirely honest when they've giving an opinion on art, but it's quite another to allege corruption and bribery involving the council.

You took his post seriously???

Read as a joke post to me.

I don't care what you think. I don't like that kind of crap being posted up about me because things can get picked up out of context later on (as happened to me over Christmas where a horrendous tweet went out about me from some fuckwit - but that's another story).

So will you if you continue posting up such wild allegations. And some.

Fucksake, take a few steps back everyone. If this thread is so easily found on google, it's not gonna give a very good impression of this site. Petty squabbling, babbling nutters and personal vendettas ahoy

But possibly an accurate one.

Have they packed it in now or have people just got used to it?

My poster never saw the light of day again. What a waste of effort that was.

I think it might still be going though. I heard some music coming from inside last weekend, but, as ever, there was nothing outside inviting people in - no advertising, no billboard, no posters, no prices, windows closed etc.

The only sign of life was two bouncers looking bored by the side door, but apart from that it looked as closed as it's ever looked.

I walked past a couple of weekends ago - there was a sandwich board on the street titled "what's on" and with details of events. There was something happening inside. I didn't stop to take a picture because it was raining.

I've only once seen a board outside once, so it was probably the same one that you saw.

Shame all the other events haven't bothered.

Well, I've seen a board outside on two separate occasions, at least. And I only walk past maybe once every week or two. Yet you can see the place from your flat and have only seen a board out once. Funny that.

Is there any way to put a whole thread on ignore?

By not looking at it if you don't want to look at it.

Whatever you say, squire.

Have you seen my poster too?

I saw it a few times but don't recall noticing it being there in the last month or so, maybe longer.

 

[editor]

Their six-month spell of putting on self-indulgent events for themselves should be over soon anyway.

Brick Box have now vacated the Angel (not that I imagine many locals will notice the difference).

It's rather a shame they didn't clear up the fucking mess they left behind, as new graffiti and shitty tags are now appearing on top of the 'artwork' they left all scrawled over the building.

 

[bluestreak]

well, it was fun whilst it lasted etc.

Tesco or Sainsbury's d'ya reckon?

 

[Brixton Hatter]

I saw builders in there earlier (trying to work out how to lock the front doors!)

Can I be the first to suggest a pop-up cider bar in the now empty building, to open in time for Christmas?

 

[Brixton Hatter]

I reckon they're more likely to set up next door in the 'Viaduct' or 'Brixton Square' because those units are brand new and won't require any building work. The Viaduct also has parking space outside.

A mulled wine bar instead!
