I probably couldn't agree with Chris more. Who are you, Andy, to say 
who are the *right* type of people? How will you prevent subversive normal
people from entering your club? A politically correct entrance examination?
Appropriate tastes in music? How do you define 'Alternative Music and Politics',
aside from your personal tastes in noise and hot air?

As for: >>Nightclubs, bars, beaches, concerts and drinking parties
aren't there enough clubs providing such activities without yet another scoring
chunks of our Student Union fees? 
I hope you enjoy the above immensely, because that's a sure way to fail 
any degree, let alone engineering or comp sci. Wot are you, a first year?

Enjoy your club, you will probably be very lonely...

No Regards,
	Mike.
