I had no idea, and I always wanted to go. They probably couldn't afford the rent, if they were renting it.. It's indoors though so it's likely privately owned though, so I have no idea. Oh well what a shame. Life goes on.

Bones has been in trouble for a long time, since Tez left it's never really been the same. They had some big problems with local scallies trying to get in a rob people and just all kinds of shit. Eventually Eddie Belvedere took over, but if you don't pay your rent for 6 months this is what happens. There was a big final jam on Sunday night. I suggest you get yourself on the Sidewalk board if you want to really find out about stuff like this. It's a massive shame. I'm going to miss it. Maybe Jack will be able to tell you more, i know he's there alot more than me.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. It doesn't really look bigger. The only thing that XW doesn't have is the pool. According to the pictures.

Dude I dont know about your country but I would gather tons of money and shit like that and have somebody who would love to run it and run up to the city councle meeting. Or take donations. That park is too pretty to die.
