Trashed

Amid a flurry of changes to the Edinburgh scene (the closure of Sala, opening of Destination's women's night, and the relocation to Studio 24 of Velvet and Zeus due to the near-razing of their venue by fire) the opening of new gay-friendly club night Trashed on Saturday 21 April is sure to be met with enthusiasm. Trashed has plenty to offer the Edinburgh gay scene in its own right. Situated at Cruz, a boat moored in increasingly queer-friendly Leith, the club night boasts an impressive variety of music – to include "Pop Trash", house, electro and, eventually, a soul and funk room: a welcome change in a scene in need of some musical diversity. Offering great food and jazz throughout the week, Cruz itself might prove a popular destination this spring. Look out for the opening of the Sun Decks towards the summer, promising to transform the depths of Leith into a set from The L Word.
