When will first 00's bar open?

Scanlas The 2nd

I first ventured into a 90's bar back in 2006 in Newcastle. Thought it was great fun. Would you appreciate a 00's bar opening in a few years?

I.D. Please

Doc Ruby

Would construction worker uniforms be mandatory or am I thinking of a different kind of bar?

Jesus Christ, can we not just go to a pub? Why the need for it to be themed in some way or another?

Not much has really changed since the 00's

It would look like the Big Brother house with a Britney Spears exclusive jukebox.

What music would you play in this 00s bar?

IMHO music in the 00s has been muck compared to the 80s and 90s.

After 00 all time became the same, its westlife boyzone and xfactor till the end of days.
Depressing but true.

If it has an 80's night, then sure.

Everything's shite since Roy Orbison died.

Well, I'm not one for fashion but IIRC, first we had the 70's revival, then the 80's revival and I think some 50's/60's stuff came back into fashion too...

Let's do it, we can all wear Abercrombie and talk about our investment properties

There's loads of 70s, 80s and 90s places in Liverpool. I think it's kind of cool having that. A 2000's club would be ****e.

Are you referring to the Liverpool suburbs of Norris Green, Croxteth and Anfield or do you mean bars? :pac:

They're pretty much all ****e with the exception of the Strokes, LCD Soundsystem and Bloc Party, and they're only average.

Not forgetting Goldfrapp, Franz Ferdinand, Bjork's more recent output, Ulrich Schnauss, Moby's latter work and the Chemical Brothers.

But the 00s pale in comparison to the 90s IMO.

Is it just me in the beginning of my mature days who feels culture died with the millennium.
There is nothing new, the music and films I liked would make my parents go WTF, but the music and films the present teens like, I go I have heard and seen it before.

I imagine the sex pistols or culture club coming on to the x factor in their time and Simon going WTF and that would be the end of that. Even films they are all rehashes and remakes, nothing fresh, nothing like Alien, The terminator or The Matrix, nothing that wows me. Perhaps the best original film I seen in years was Inception but that was the exception. I realise this as I am looking for a flick to see tonight and The new avengers is the only offer. I have been there and I done that, I can expect the usual formula with few surprises. But it will pass the time.

stmol32

I went to an over 60s do in a bar once.

Is a 90's bar similar?

I thought the 00's was an good decade for movies.

There was a shift in culture. Look at Saw, The new batman and 300 for example. The tone got much darker and more aggressive.

Overall I think the 00's was a much more interesting decade than the 90's. People also are much more interesting than in the 90's. Less pc IMO and they are better at thinking for themselves.

So there were two good bands in the 00s then.

Darker because of 9/11 and the monkey in the whitehouse, but I disagree I think Hollywood and the music companies stopped taking risks and just rehashed the certain things.

I am sick to death of superhero, romcoms and buddy comedies films, Pixar was the exception. I suppose we have the new spiderman and superman franchise to look forward to. The only film coming I am looking forward to is prometheus and that is part of the Alien franchise.

Kitchy Bars are not Pubs .Cafe Bars are not Pubs and Theme Pubs are ok for one visit .Real Pubs have cranky aul' fellahs and aul' wans with a carpet on the floor the pattern of has long vanished an' the locals seem like permanent fixtures .Das a real pub .

Jagera

Pah, thats not dark! Al Qaeda are/were a bunch of sissys.

The 90's had the break up of the Soviet Union, genocide in the Balkans and Rwanda, and Boris Yeltsin with one hand on the nuclear red button and the other hand holding a bottle of Vodka. Here at home we had the troubles.

The 90's, Good times brah, good times!

thefishone

Will we have to pay ridiculous prices for sh!te drinks, although that may not
have changed since then,I don't get to the pub often these days.

The new superman and spiderman will be discussed in the 10's bar in about 15 years time.

There is always going to be the usual money making conveyer belt movies, there was also some gems in 00's.
