10-11 i would say .... Get yourself to one of the bars around the area (theres a good one just on the left as you come out of farringdon tube that has some decent dj's on) and you can scope out the queue situation every now and then. Its not always horrific - Nearly all the time's ive been there has been barely any wait to get in (between 11-12).
I would of said about 11am this morn and i havent even been? I heard storys of mates doing crates of lager, bottles of spirits and all there "gear" in before they have even got in there so it must be some fucking que normally
The best thing to do is join as a member that costs about £7 a month, you get the cds posted every month and a q jump card for if you go to the club.
It was class We got there about 10.30, about 45 mins queue so not too bad really. Might join their members club though :
It depends if you buy the cd's regularly though like i did before i joined. Buying a cd at shop price (£11.99 in HMV) 7 times a year costs more, so you may as well join get all the cd's and also get q-jump to the club when you go down.
I'm a member like, only ever used in once....but the CDs are usually pretty good! Last time i went the Q was massive, at least a 2hour wait!! Lucky we had guestlist so got in ok. I love fabric like!!
