The Purple Turtle, Reading

This used to be a good venue for music. It was Readings best rock and metal music pub. (With drum and bass downstairs.)
Drinks were the usual town centre bottles and pumps so nothing special. It has now been refurbished so it became popular with the chavs of Reading.
I hear the decor is now impressive but I cannot bring myself to listen to the awful music that is now played.
The day I heard Beyonce and Ronan Keating being played in the Turtle was the last day I went in there.
