     "Dear Friends,
     
     This is the message that we never wanted to write.
     
     Due to the grim economic climate, the subsequent decline of the live music scene and the unbridled brutality of our beloved corporate friends, Junktion7 will be closing its doors for the last time on December 31st 2008.
     
     Over the last many months we have all worked desperately hard to keep this venue afloat, but in the end our efforts have come to nothing and we've been left with no choice.
     
     So, after almost 7 years of truly live independent music in Nottingham, it's time to say goodbye.
     
     We do hope, however, that when you walk past our building in the future and see a soul-less trendy wine bar or a faceless supermaket or whatever they choose to do with our little corner of the world, you will see the mark of where the high tide of Nottingham's independent music scene once stood, and spare a second or two for all the awesome memories we've all had in this little concrete rock n roll bunker.
     
     It's now in the hands of the other independent live venues in the city... we know it will rise again. Support your local scene, and don't let this happen again.
     
     In the meantime, it's time to party like there's no 2009!! We would like you ALL to come down to all of these FABULOUS shows and give Junktion7 the send-off it deserves, culminating with the mother of all parties on New Year's Eve 2009.
     
     Adrian, Julio, Hannah and all the staff @ Junktion7.
     The captain crew are going down with this ship."

   • That's sad. Only went there once for a very poor (but very fun) Spazzareth gig years ago. Lovely little venue though.

   • Aye it wasn't a bad venue. Played there a few times and always had fun, even though the sound engineers always turned the sound down after 10. Had Ringworm gig there as well in January which is cancelled. It is a shame.

   • Been to quite a few gigs there, decent venue, not been for a couple of years though as either no one special played, or if they did i didn't get to know about it. Sad to see it go.
     
     Their coke always gave me stomach ache, even when i had to drive so that was a bummer mind.
