Two concert halls for an audience of 2,500 people, a 14-metre guitar-shaped bar, 350 artists performing at the club during the 11 months of its existence, triangular posters hanging all over the city – this is the story of one of the first independent rock clubs in free Poland which took Warsaw by storm. It became the most important place on the map of the resurgent capital in 1992 and rallied an extraordinary community of young people who loved music and fun.
