I'm really disallusioned with Spiders now. Although the club itself is still brilliant, and I think I'll be hard pushed to find somewhere as good that combines a good crowd, good music and such low price drinks, it's now what I thought it was. Everything I took it to stand for, for me at least, it's proved itself not to be. The web-page promotes censorship and freedom of speech is non-existant!
I've seen people turned away from lots of pubs and clubs in town because of (silly) dress codes. Spiders doesn't have one, as far as I am aware. Yet they still class people who look like punks as second class citizens. Then when they complain, they get deemed as trouble causers! It's ironic, in a bad way. Their claim is that they are a club with no silly gimmicks. In actual fact, the manegment are their silly gimmick. Banning people and music just because of some silly prejudice they have. I've said it before, and I'll say it again;
Their website will be their downfall.
That doesn't mean I'm going to do anything to it, or post stuff on their. But it's obviousl from the number of people who post on their who obviously have some grievance or other, that it is more of a bad thing for them, than a good thing.
What are your thoughts?

PS- I advise you not to use your real names on this discussion. It's unlikely, but staff from Spiders could read it and ban you.
