... You forgot The Mayflower club. Opposite Belle Vue. A GREAT punk venue where all the top acts played. (Including my band I should add).
As for the Press club, its still going strong. I know a couple of Corrie actors so I've been in a few times, always good fun spotting drunken tv personalities. Last time I was in a certain Rovers barmaid - who has just split up from her hubby - was lying flat out drunk on the dance floor. People were steppin over her.
.. oh and they STILL don't serve beer in glasses. It's over priced bottles or cans only. Hmph,
