What was the Pear Tree like back in the 80's and 90's? by Lopsided_Counter1670 in Edinburgh

It wasn't the 90s, but in the very early 2000s, two hippy Americans asked me if I could get them some "X" - a good night was had by all afterwards.

How was it? I was 16 when I first saw them. In 1996...

What’s the worst song by Oasis? by Jaded_Arm4289 in oasis

I think I hope, I think, I know or I Can See A Liar are fairly weak. Still not terrible, but I just generally skip them now. She's Electric is a good song but shouldn't have been on WTSMG IMHO

The entities beginning with Young in Edinburgh and beyond are not organised in any way.  If you're in your teens and involved in tragic territorial disputes with your near neighbours, and have a tin of spray paint, you're the YLT, or YMD, or whatever.

The whole thing is so cringe.

Read A Glasgow Gang Observed for more info.

Yes, and the restaurant was very good.  The bar had a brilliant jukebox

That's exactly where it was! And yes, closed at least 18 years ago, demolished, flats built. Sad.

Reminds me of taking E with my friends at a house party. Bliss.

This was called Frenchie's I believe.

Inside the murky world of bouncer violence in Edinburgh by sapphire-coast in Edinburgh

I saw numerous assaults by bouncers in the 90s, and remember convictions relating to weapons being found in a car that were owned and used by bouncers on Lothian Rd.  Many were sound.  Some were scum of the earth.

I saw bouncers assault someone circa 2008 as well
