Club Squeaks

There's a small but promising new club in the Sunweaver/Angel's community: Club Squeaks.

 

This new club came about in response to the closing of another. On Thursday July 28, Brandi Streussel announced that Clube Livewire (sometimes spelled L!vew!re) had shut down and the building taken down. The club had kept calling itself "The NEW Livewire" as it was less than a year old, having opened in Fall 2021 (probably late September), and the Cyberpunk look was done away with in Spring 2022 and a more regular look installed. In mid-July, owner Whiskey Ravenhurst (formerly Thorrin Resident) announced he was shutting down the venue as real-life demanded his full attention.

Brandi was one of the DJs at the closed club, and her response was to start a new one. It's in a small building in the middle of a globe way up in the Pacific Waters sim. The design is a somewhat simple one, with a small dance floor and DJ booth. The booth has a small mouse-shaped tip jar that squeaks when tiped and gives a cloud of cheese animation. There's a couple of rotating neon dance platforms in the air, the same kind Club Zero Gravity is noted for). There's also an overhead large hammock with cushions, in case a couple wants to hang around after the party and cuddle.

There were a few suggestions for names after Brandi announced on her Discord channel she would soon be creating her own club, such as "The Cheese Factory" and "The Mouse Trap." But Brandi named it after her DJ handle, DJ Squeaks, presumably for better recognition.

Currently Club Squeaks has events Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9 to 11 AM SL time, with Brandi/DJ Squeaks as the sole DJ, for now. It is currently the only club in the Sunweaver/Angel area with morning hours.
