Always wondered where the Squat was. Is it still standing? Was it a squatted venue?

The Squat was on Devas Street, which doesn't really exist now.
Stand on Oxford Road looking at the front of Mcr Academy 1, and look about 100 yards to the left. You'll see a barrier-entry for the carpark (which is to the left of the barrier itself) - that's roughly where The Squat used to be.

I played the squat a couple of times. Once supporting the Distractions, it was a great venue with a great atmosphere
