Mean Fiddler
Right next door to the Astoria, the venue formerly known as the LA2 puts on club nights at the weekend. Friday is the long-running Club X, playing all manner of indie "anthems". Saturday is the slightly more mainstream Atomic all-nighter, with three rooms playing 70s superfly, 80s disco and an "eclectic" room mainly playing Prodigy tracks.

Not the best club in the world, but hell, you're in town, it's raining and often there's not many other options.
