Know your history: The Balmoral

By Mike Usinger
From CBGB in New York City to the Smilin’ Buddha Cabaret in Vancouver, the best live-music clubs have been located in neighbourhoods that Charles Bukowski would have loved getting liquored up in. Not that long ago, the Balmoral was the kind of room populated by hard-core barflies, as well as other unfortunates who found themselves on the outside of society looking in. But that’s changed following upgrades to the room that have made it a burgeoning haven for Vancouver hipsters.

Know your history - the Media Club

By Travis Lupick
For roughly 25 years now, the Media Club has occupied a little space on Cambie Street beneath the Queen Elizabeth Theatre complex. It is a fairly subtle venue, with no flashy sign outside its door and a plain-black interior. But the Media Club is loud. If you want live, local music, it is where you head.

Know your history - Celebrities

By Sarah Rowland
Like many Vancouver nightclubs, Celebrities started out as a teetotalling ballroom. On September 24, 1914, Lester Court opened its doors for dance lessons. Then in '33, one of the oldest buildings in the West End changed hands and was renamed the Embassy, which eventually turned into a cabaret. Later on, legend has it the basement housed a mini rhythm-and-blues concert hall.

DJ Lowdown: Nicky Delgado

By Martin Turenne
Reaching the A-list in Vancouver’s house-music community means being as good a marketer as you are a musician, and on both counts Nicky Delgado rates among the scene’s top talents.

Know your history - The Penthouse

By Mike Usinger
Last month, the marquee outside the Penthouse featured a rather odd greeting: “Welcome Heritage Vancouver.” Could it be that local architecture buffs enjoy exotic entertainment as much as Howe Street stockbrokers? Possibly, but the shout-out was more a reflection of the fact that the Penthouse has one of the richest histories of any club in Vancouver.

Know your history - Doolin’s Irish Pub

By Tina Lamanes
If Doolin’s Irish Pub, in the heart of the Granville Street entertainment zone, is proof of anything, it’s that you don’t have to travel across the Atlantic to feel like you’re in Dublin’s Temple Bar district. Before Doolin’s opened at 654 Nelson Street in 2002, the site went through a number of transformations. The building that houses the pub was constructed in 1912 as the classy Barron Hotel. Approximately 10 years later, it changed to the Hotel Belmont.
