Yeah, Bagleys security were the worst I ever encountered. I remember getting dragged off the dancefloor and into a dark corridor and threatened by them once. They thought I was dealing but in fact had absolutely nothing, not even Percy. No apology. And had my balls groped on the way in on a couple of occasions. Other people that actually were found with stuff on them got badly beaten, in fact I know one guy who got hospitalised. And of course it was implied that whatever they confiscated they gave to their people on the dancefloor to sell on their behalf.
that kind of stressful experience meant I also gave the place a wide berth for a while as well.
They knew that the security were out of control, loads of events started writing 'new friendlier security' on their fliers, people would get there and find it was still the same firm!
Funny though because there are a few people out there who really rate Bagleys as being one of the most free n' easy, hedonistic venues ever. Maybe it was if you were from the same part of town as the doormen they were nicer to you? But anyway, I don't think I ever had a properly good night in that place, there was always something sketchy happening to ruin it.

Agreed, Bagleys security were the worst but it was SUCH a f*****g great club!

Aye it was.
Last event I went to there after they turned it into Canvas (albeit it was still the same venue just tarted up a bit) was Seriousworld back in 2004 - https://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=5014
What a lineup it was for trance too:
Serious : Paul Van Dyk, Judge Jules, Eddie Halliwell, Scott Bond, Matt Hardwick, Simon Patterson
Dusted : Norman Jay, Shapeshifter, Trophy Twins, Rebekah, 2Funky, Rob Marmot
Took me a while to find that link as well, I guess the internet is slowly relegating the history, too.

I never had any trouble with security at Bagleys. I have heard countless stories from people who did, but they were always fine with me

well I think that was the problem with them to be fair, their 'attacks' were so random, you honestly had to wonder wtf was up with them. Getting pulled aside for lighting up a rollup - in the days before the smoking ban - was just odd. Even if they were trying to bust you for weed you'd think they could have done a sniff test first lol

Got the most thorough search one day at the door, shoes off, cigarette box destroyed, very intimate. They were confused at how I didn't have anything on me. Meantime Melanie with me walks in with 50 pills and several wraps - minimal search.
