Start The Bus’ opening party (with Mr Oizo) in 2008 kick started a refreshing change
for bars in Bristol city centre. An adequate sized backroom for gigs and its regular
jumble sales, Start the Bus hosts a wide range of going ons. Start the Bus seems to have
some serious programming power. It’s not rare to look at what’s on at Start the Bus and
find pretty big names with cheap door tax if not free entry.
