Outside the venue, darkly clad figures take long drags on their cigarettes. Approaching the entrance, you see a mat in front of the door: “Tall, Dark and Handsome Vampires Welcome.” Once inside, this Kingston club seems more like what you might see in Manhattan; the room is narrow, deep and dark. Everyone is dressed in black. Some are dressed in regular clothing, others are dressed to the hilt with crazy hair and makeup. But all in black, or maybe blood red. You can’t really hear the buzzing conversation at the bar or the ice rattling in glasses, because Nick Cave is screeching over the sound system, “Release The Bats!”
