the more mainstream nights get busy very early. the more underground nights get busy later. the more mainstream nights empty sooner than the more underground ones. it's the same across all clubs on the island.
Makes sense. It also makes sense that the mainstream crowd won't be as used to being out til 6/7am so will head home when they have had enough, which is about 3am. Which fits with Cream.
I live in London and take this same approach to any event I go to whatever it is! I will always arrive at fabric for open i.e 11/11:30 and day events like Printworks I never arrived later than 2pm. Like you say I like to see the venue and night build up and don't want to arrive when everything is at its peak
I run a club night in Vauxhall, it's amazing the amount of people we get in post 3am. But they are usually just looking for a place to carry on and don't care about what's being played. With Printworks, with Beyer we f***ed up and didn't get in til 5pm, but we got in early with Melt! and was worth it.
