My memory has The Insect Club as the one here in PQ, at 7th & E (right where Central Liquors is moving in). right? This would have been around 1993 or so, when I first moved to PQ….
maybe we were thinking of the 15 Minute Club. could have sworn the Insect Club eventually moved to a multi-level venue.
15 minute was on 14th between K and L in the old Post building, if I remember correctly. Spent many a night there back in the day…
Any thoughts on the “mosquito” device at the Chinatown entrance to metro to discourage younger crowds from haning out?

I’m all for the “mosquito” device but I’ve got a feeling it’s going to face some opposition by local government, especially if the old guard carries the day in a couple weeks.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

insect club was 625 E st NW.
