Meenzer 14031 Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 There's also a gay indie rock night at the Scala just next to KC station, btw. It's shite, from what I recall. Aye, it recently moved to somewhere in Soho. Never particularly enjoyed it, but hey, it's rare to have any kind of diversity in the ghey scene so it's all good I suppose.

I predicted before I went that there would be one specific song that they'd definitely definitely play. Can you guess what it was? (they did, too.)

Meenzer 14031 Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Nope. Placebo's Nancy Boy. Christ, I'd forgotten that song actually existed. But yeah, pretty safe call where Popstarz (cough) is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInspiration 1 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 It's a red-light district isn't it? I'm sure there's lots of places to stay overnight in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stevie Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) It's a red-light district isn't it? I'm sure there's lots of places to stay overnight in that case. It's not really a red lights district, well it is. If you're looking for a rent boy, or a heroin/crack addicted West African lass, you'd probably find it easy to get yourself a nosh for 40 quid, but it's hardly AMsterdam. The bit along and up that road beside McDonalds is a disgrace, going the other way is nicer up the street where the post office is going due south from Kings Cross.

It's not if you're in Berlin either as you end up eating a lot of burgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Kings Cross is a pretty crappy area. Once stayed with a mate who lived there on Pentonville Rd at the time- awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombadil 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I've stayed in King's Cross a few times now because it's so central and because I had to get early trains etc., and some of the comments in this thread are way over the top, it's really not that bad. They're developing the area too, it looked a lot better when I went there a few months ago compared to the last time I was there. And that's from someone who lives in Switzerland, so there!
