YOU can now take home the sounds of the weekend from one of Liverpool's up and coming venues.
The Other Place may be overshadowed by its huge neighbour, Cream, but it has attracted an eclectic mix of young people, with class but without the attitude. Saturday nights have drawn out the club bunnies whilst Sunday's retro feel has broad appeal.
Owner Anne Marie has put together a truly friendly clubbing experience which, with support, promises to rival its more illustrious neighbours.
