I could only go to a proper dive of a nightclub when I was a teen as I was 16 first time I went. I couldn't go near the two decent clubs in the city as my dad was a bouncer on the door of one and my uncle was a bouncer on the door of the other. |

You made me laugh to myself when I read this question, I can remember it clearly, it was 87 and I was only 17, I gave the birthdate of my brother whose birthday it was that day, however being a bit d*unk I give the year of birth in the same year I was in, I remember the bouncer telling me to go home to my cot |

"Brahms and Liszt in Manchester when I was 14 and then followed that with the Hacienda "
Yeah when I was 7 I got taken to my first opera - Don Giovanni at the ENO. Cos my parents thought a 3 hour opera about a serial grapist being dragged to hell was accessible 🤣🙈 |

Would've been the very late Eighties??
In a small towney town called Newark-on-Trent, I managed to blag a job as an underaged glass collector back in the days when the dance floor would get covered in smashed pint pots, the carpets were sticky and DJ Wayne would always finish his set by turning on the house lights, announce "last orders at the bar ladies and gentlemen" and playing Lady in Red by Chris de Burgh.
It was a classy joint called
"The Club". It was a smart shirt and shoes, no jeans kind of place- Believe it or not the Bouncers were genuinely just like Hale & Pace "if yer names not down, ya not coming in".
It all got a bit weird in the nineties when Acid house kicked off and the place stunk of ammo and Vicks vapo rub with the same old regulars singing along to Eezergood by The Shamen completely oblivious to the lyrics   |

Only ever went to one once. That was more than enough.
Think it was in Ealing area.
Went there with Brazilian girl who I parted company with soon after.
The club was horrendously crowded, noisy and smokey.
Trying to get a drink from the bar, carry it, hold it, drink it, put it anywhere while dancing was a nightmare.
Didn't take me long to decide that the lifestyle was not for me. Nor was the girl as she only wanted sex once per weekend stopover. |

The local one I mentioned was a great place, 2 floors, served chips and other snacks, put on free bus from morpeth (I think other nearby towns too) so could still go there if drinking out of bedlington. Once Blyth, morpeth and ashington got nightclubs the place sadly died went from being packed Friday and Saturday to sometimes being ten people in.
We called the place worse than shit at the time yet always ended up there, miss it now it’s gone there was no place like it |
