The irony here is that before the place was called Village Caberet, it was named Die Machine ('die' being the German term i believe).
Perhaps the next local story Bren could comment on is the one about young teenage kids stealing cars and putting ice blocks on their gas pedals as the unmanned vehicle goes ramming into apartment buildings or off bridges.

Bren speaks the truth on this one, a pretty amazing story really. I confess that I've been to the Cabaret a number of times when I used to live close to Winnipeg. My brother lived nearby and it was the only bar in the neighbourhood that didn't play ear-shattering dance or country music.
They had me hooked the first time I walked by it on a Friday or Saturday night and I could hear the Buzzcocks coming from upstairs....
(it certainly is not the nicest looking place though)

oh and i should add another great thing about the Cabaret was that any time I was drinking there, my "party" was likely to have been the only ones in there. It's like having your own personal DJ!
I wonder why nobody went there.....

Cholera, diptheria, bovine anthrax, avian bird flu, African swine fever, rodent parvovirus, ebola, necrotizing fasciitis (Rita McNeil caught it there, doctors gave her 10 years to live!), the common cold, the uncommon cold, uncommon valour... etc.

Did you think you could just sneak back in here without any fanfare?
Nice to see you back, chess.
