Rotters in 82. It was the only place let would let a group of lads from Hulme in!

I think it was Placemate 7. But it might've been one of a few tbh. But Placemates was the usual place. Loved the Bowie Room.

First time I went "clubbing" and discovered House Music et al was Back to Basics at the Warehouse in Leeds.

It was a club near Crompton Way in Bolton back in 1980. Can't remember the name but it was a shithole. Think the building was turned into a Kwik Save.

Here's a memory test for the old uns. My first nightclub is now the B&Q in Stretford but for the life of me I cant think what it was called when it was a nighclub. I seem to remember that through the week it had live acts and was called 'The Hard Rock' but the 'disco went by a different name, can anyone enlighten me ?


The Village Disco

I'm not old enough to remember being a young 45 but if I remember correctly I have a fly poster from there that I got when I bought some records years back but I think it had Hardrock/Village Disco on it.

Mersey Lights pub and Valentines Club in Chorlton. Get in when you were 14 and get involved in the Wythenshawe/Merseybank games!!!

The people calling these places dumps have obviously never been to candlelight in oldham.
You had to keep moving otherwise your feet stuck to the floor.
Shite piss-weak overpriced beer, girls fighting, lads fighting and the bogs were like something from downtown Karachi.
Must agree with that.
It was more like a holding area for cage fighting than a night club.

Sadly Rotters. Once & only once; everywhere else I ever went was brilliant after that.
 
Re: what's the first nightclub you went to!

When I was about 11 or 12 the Birdcage in Ashton used to have an under 18's Disco on a Saturday afternoon so we used to go to that in the close season.
