Nightclubs (for want of a better expression)
|
Ilford Palais, Room at the Top, Lacy Lady, Barons, Hollywood’s, Lotus (Forest Gate) to name just a few.
Any of these, or any not mentioned, bring back interesting memories that you’d like to share for general interest and amusement..?

Palais every Thursday night, used to be a good laugh. Also in our late teens going to The Lotus on a Friday night, which was over 25s and having to bullshit you're way in. No idea why we went there as it was usually full of dangerous people 😂

Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing We're what's happening Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing We're an ice machine We see people brand new people They're something to see When we're nightclubbing Bright-white clubbing Oh isn't it wild? Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing We're walking through town Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing We walk like a ghost We learn dances brand new dances Like the nuclear bomb When we're nightclubbing Bright white clubbing Oh isn't it wild...

Babe get dressed wear something flashy Trip the light fantastic and we're on our way Too much work make Jack such a sad boy Now we're coming out to play
Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl out on the town Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl out and about
Oh, the sweet feeling of dancing close together And the heavy, heavy sound of pop music Teenage hero fashion dummy weirdo I like your pink lipstick
Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl out on the town Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl out and about
Oh, don't tell me about Monday morning Oh, don't tell me about life outside Oh, don't tell me about Monday morning Do me a favour and take a ride
Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl out on the town Me and my girl night clubbing Me and my girl putting in about
Out on the town let me take you - night clubbing Out on the be seen with you Out on the town let me take you - night clubbing Dancing the whole night thru Out and about Out on the town let me take you - night clubbing Out on the be seen with you Out on the town let me take you - night clubbing Dancing the whole night thru Out and about

Romford born and bred so before hollywoods was even thought of it would be The Kings Head and The Rezz in Romford, used to work in Barking so would go to The Westbury quite a bit. If we could get a lift would be The Goldmine or Crocs.
Fucking hell it seems like centuries ago ☹️
