Same! I worked at the one in West Ed for a few short months in 2003. I took full advantage of that discount many times—including for a couple of months after I quit when it still somehow worked. lol. I spent at least some time at pretty much every place on your list. A lot of Sundays at Funky...

Red’s before it was Ed’s had so many amazing concerts. It was such a shitty layout for a live music venue but so many great artists rolled through there before they were big. I saw Muse there in October 2004 and it wasn’t even half full—incredible.

NTN!! We spent hours playing that at the billiard bar that was in the strip mall off 50 st. across from Capilano. Name of the place has slipped my mind.

Wasn't he a headliner one of the nights last year? Or maybe a couple years back? London, Halifax, Winnipeg and Ottawa are all getting Nate Bargatze. The Saturday Edmonton comics haven't been announced yet so I'm hoping we get him here. I saw him two years ago at the Jubilee just before his...

Has it or do we see/hear more about it because of social media? I know for a fact that violence (stabbings, fights, etc.) was an almost nightly problem at bars, clubs, on Whyte, on Jasper, at WEM in the 90's early 2000's. My dad was a police officer from '79 to 2014 and used to tell me all the...

This was started in the Army and Navy building thread but I thought it was an interesting topic so I started a proper thread. What are your memories of Edmonton's nightlife in the past and where do you go for a night out now? I was born in the 80's and turned 18 in the early 2000's so my prime...

Oh man, you have no idea what you missed in the 90's/early 2000s then. Edmonton back then was a mecca for mega nightclubs—I think there were 4 in West Ed alone at one time. Downtown, south side, west end, and Whyte (old Strathcona) all had vegas-style dance nightclubs that didn't have a kitchen...

I drive by every day and I noticed yesterday that it was gone.

Yes. I went to Beercade once for my brother-in-law's birthday—he's a big video game guy, and when the clock struck 10 we felt woefully out of place. I swear there was not a person that looked over 20 and it was packed.

I'd love to see a big festival like one of those here. I think it would be quite successful. F7 and Kinsmen seem to have done well on a smaller scale with Soundtrack and pre-covid they also had a hard rock/metal festival (can't remember what it was called). Trixstar has done VERY well with the...

They reopened for a brief period last year when the U announced a bunch of staff would be working out of ES. I think reality set in once the staff didn't actually return. Now they have signs up that say 'temporarily closed'. Renos look good but there's still barely anyone occupying all that...

Have to admit, OEG is doing some pretty cool stuff with that fan park. I like that they seem to be keeping it programmed fairly regularly too. To think it was almost going to be another parking lot—instead, the city's decision to deny the zoning application forced them to get creative and it...

Sometimes I feel like the U of A is happy to be in the city but couldn't care less about being part of the city.

If you go into the comments on Instagram post someone asks if this is actually happening and when construction is starting and they answered March 2025.

That guy is such a chud. Him and Keane Bexte are the two biggest incel losers in this province.

This is mental. Quite the Premier/party rural Alberta elected—really for the people. People will die because you didn't vote for me.

I asked someone who would know and was told that it was essentially undecided but likely 2025. They likely want to wait and see how cash flow is once this one is complete and starts renting out. I believe it's still TBD whether tower 2 will be condos or rentals.

I got a tour of this building this morning and I was too in awe to take any pics. It is absolutely stunning. Everything from the restoration of the 1922 building to the new glass tower and how it was incorporated into the old building is exceptional. This is an incredible project and will end up...

Hopefully this does something to activate Enterprise Square some more.

Yep. We were very excited about that.
