Afterlife: No More a Goth/Industrial Dance Club

Yes, it is over. ..After exactly one year. Eulogies, anyone?

Eulogies we have received:
Uncanny ! Afterlife here in York also closed for the last time a week or so ago due to venue hassles. Sorry to hear that your club has also gone the same way - any particular reasons ?
-bat.
Thanks for the fun, but too brief, Afterlife. It's sad to see it go. I'm glad there's people like you and Karen and others that go out of the way to support the scene here in Santa Barbara.

Bummer, what will we all do?

I am DEEPLY depressed (which some may view as a good thing for a goth boy) to hear that Afterlife will in fact die. I am sure that you are getting deluged with requests as to the new (if any, if ever) location of any future goth clubs in SB so I will spare you. Let me say that I have enjoyed After life since its inception and will be sad to see it pass. You guys are the best thanks for all the memories and an excuse to get a bunch of boys and hot goth babes together with a bunch of gloomy make up and loud music. thanks again.
yours meloncholically,

Here's a playlist from our closing night Oct.14, 1997. Here's a playlist from our opening night Oct.22, 1996. Photo of Trance to the Sun (Dawn Wagner and Ashkelon Sain) at the club. Our newest deejay, Karen at Fetish Night. Another photo from Fetish Night.

No Afterlife tonight? Suicide may be looking pretty good, but here are some links instead:
