Melody makers new venue

Club NME is re-launching in Brum on 7th February next year - so far so fast-decling-once-great-inky-trying-to-eek-every-last-bit-out-of-its-name, but it mentions that it will be housed in “a brand new venue in Birmingham custom built for this type of Club Night”. Which, despite despairing of the odd capitalisation, made me go “woo hoo”!
The venue is called “The Place I Love” and is apparently a sister venue to the Sunflower, and rumoured to have a capacity of about 200 [EDIT - they say 500 ] (this information comes only from the interweb, so make of that what you will).
Guessing from where the Sunflower is brings up a couple of possible venues, no-longer used bars around the Queensway area, but if anyone has any concrete ideas I’d be happy to know.
Club NME has a myspace, for those that do.

It’s in Digbeth, opposite the RTP crisp factory (can’t remember the name of the road), which is now being converted into flats (watch out for that noise abatement order!!) and should, I think, hold 400

[...] BiNS picks up on the news that The NME are launching a new club in Birmingham on February 7th in a new venue called “The Place I Love”. Specific details are sketchy but it seems to be connected with The Sunflower Lounge and to be located on Allison Street in Digbeth which I note is much closer to the city centre than most Digbeth venues.
