Nightclubs

The Ritz. ‘Dance yer docs off’on Monday nights.

The Ritz sounds about right although tbf it was a while ago and memories can be sketchy. :-)

Can't remember the name of the place and this would probably be shortly before the Hacienda closed its doors but there was a place that appeared to be a converted ballroom. It was somewhere in Manchester IIRC. At nights end they played the theme to "The dambusters" and everyone ran around the edge of the dance floor then had a massive pile on.
Anyone know what the bejasus I am on about?

Discoteque Royale?

It was. Bouncy, sticky floor. Started off playing metal and hardcore/punk then segued into hip hop and dance music later on

It was the Moon well before it was Drifters mate, it was also known as Hiccups at one time

Not heard it being the moon, Hiccups yes. Just before if was demolished in the delapidated state it was in it had punk gigs on. I saw The Exploited there, probably UK Subs too.

Had an upper gallery overlooking the dance floor. Only went once.
Went to Stringfellows in London a fair bit but that's largely as my best pal at the time had a friend who was some sort of Saudi Prince who held court. I never paid for a drink and always stottered out of there. I look back and shudder.
Nightclubs in Edinburgh are way better imo. Less in the way of dress codes and more in the way of having a good time.

That was a brilliant night (Thursday's) until the bouncer's had a turf war and drove a car into the place.
