When house boomed and Ecstasy flooded the club the Hac was absolutely the best place on earth - 1988 and 1989. As said above, the gangs moved in, the bouncers got hard and a lot of the E, and the vibe, was squeezed out of the club.

When that happened Konspiracy was pretty damn rocking but had a darker edge than the Hac.

The Konspiracy was like a Victorian tea room compared to the Thunderdome and Hippos.
Thunderdome on Oldham Road? Brilliant!
They played terrible music in them two. Cheesy hardcore rave music, just awful. At least the Hacienda and Konspiracy played decent music.
An honourable mention should also go to The Boardwalk, where a lot of people went after the gangs and day tripper bus parties from Yonnerland started ruining the Hacienda. Dave Haslam's 'Freedom' house night on a Saturday, and the 'Yellow' funk and soul night on a Friday, both were ace for a spell, with none of the aggressive/up their own arse attitude of Fac 51

Cheers mate.
 
Just turned 18 this year so obviously have no idea other than what I've read or heard (mostly on here), would love to know how it would put places like 42s and 5th ave now into perspective
 
Good times at the Hac, but cold and expensive. I remember seeing the undertones there, and the PA and sound went off, and the crowd just sang. Also remember the Lesbian and Gay Men support the Miners that my flat mate organised. Never got into the acid thing, wish I had now!

Haha. still got that Colourbox World Cup theme on 12in vinyl, must dig it out for a spin

Why that wasn't a worldwide hit is still a mystery to me...

If you're reading this and have never heard this tune, then go to You Tube and search it immediately!
Picture of a young Jimmy Hill on the cover I think
