darnalldavid Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 I remember Cavendish,or Baileys nightclub as it was later known as,where Long John Baldry came and sang,and also Clodagh Rogers. Anybody come to my own Club-- Club 60 on Shalesmoor around 1967.Sort of a cellar Rock Club,Sheffields own Cavern Club.There were local groups like Bob Davis Mood and DD Watson and the Inn Crowd,Chicago Line and others.Darnalldavid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m_sande Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I can't believe no mention of Shades, fantastic soul music club of the 70's, but you had to watch your wallet. Then progressed on to Crazy Daisy then limit where we saw many up and comming groups. remember Pennys where I think I saw ABC perform their first gig, it was all down hill after that. Proud to say I never went to Josephines or Top Rank, sorry did go to top rank to see the Clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thai Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Originally posted by Chris M In the late 60's used to go down to the then LOCARNO on Sunday nights.

Yes I used to go out with him .Do you know if hes still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melthebell Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Originally posted by Damon When I was of an age to go underage clubbing (mid 80s), 'Tiffanys' was called Vicars (not forgetting the upstairs bit which was called The Treetops Suite where, if you danced too vigorously, the record jumped and the DJ bellowed "Don't knock the console!"). These days of course, it's quite a prestigious club owned by the Gatecrasher people, and it's called Bed. In between times it's been variously called Le Palais (when it was a stalwart of Sheffield's early nineties rave scene), The Music Factory (when it became the first mid-nineties Sheffield club to really compete with the serious clubbing giants of Leeds, Manchester and Liverpool - its flagship night was the glam house Love To Be...), and Club Generation (about which I have no knowledge whatsoever). Iv'e been to it when it was the locarno - saw a metal band (the members were only something like 10 years old) La palais (i went every tuesdays night for the student night (ozric tentacles, nine inch nails, levellers etc etc) i was there that often the manager joked that he was going to put me my own beer tap in aswell as a few times on the rave nights ) and i also went to the music factory a few times when it was hardcore rave. this is my first ever post on here after searching for animal kwackers and finding this site im from sheffield but sadly live away now, thought id say hi I also used to visit rebels and roxys rock nights quite a bit, and used to drink in the yorkshireman and wap too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
