Great news this, was such a shame to see the Filmhouse closed. So glad it's not been turned into a chain pub or something.

This is a miracle. I was also scared we'd get another weatherspoons or something.
The HMV Picturehouse closing was a scarring experience for me.

I wish that we had another gig venue like that but nothing really replaced it. Leith Theatre is maybe the closest.
