What night clubs did you go to in the 70's


Recommended Posts

We used to come from Filey just to go to the Limit, on West Street in the 80's...and then drive back or sleep in Weston Park if we were too drunk.

 

Wearing the gear required, we were considered fraks inn our little part of Yorkshire!

 

:rolleyes:

I use to spend quite a few saturdays in the wopantake thats if you spell it like that listening to the heavy rock music and in a bar that use to be under the grand hotel on leoplod street the thing I didnt like was supping out of plastic glasses as for the night clubs there was only one for me and that was rebels I use to go out with a lot of mates who was into rock music and now 30 years on I am still into rock music it is now a brillant thing that the nelson as now gone back to rock music after a 30 year gap, talking of pubs can anyone remember what they called that pub across from the city hall what use to be on the corner what is now the witherspoons,they use to play a fair bit of rock music but the other one that should never have been altered was the orchid pub best rock pub in sheffield.

More 80's than 70's but I seem to remember my week consisted of:

 

Roxys up the ramp of shame on a Tuesday for party night (free tickets/bottle of plonk)

Romeos on a Thursday night for more of the same

Fannys at Owler Bar on Friday if we could get someone to take the car

Kiki's Saturday

Charlie Parkers Sunday

 

Every other spare minute was spent in the Woodthorpe pub.

Used to go to the Top Rank every Saturday morning. Saw Hot Chocolate twice, Ian Drury and the Blockheads, and others. Everyone seemed to talk about the Northern Soul all nighters in Wigan. I never got there though.

The Genevieve was owned by a guy named Max O'mara it was down the Moor on the road that went behind the Grovesnor Hotel. The nightclub at Owler Bar was first Five Ways then Fanny's.

Wasn't it on Eyre St? Next door to Hofbrahaus upstairs?

 

Later became Pennys?

 

 

 

 

Fannys?
