Madjambo21 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 What was the club in Edinburgh with about 3 levels. Think it was near Shakespeare's. Fell out of there a few times when I was younger. Vividly remember talking pish to Steven Pressley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Салатные палочки Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 I only ever went to one club in Edinburgh and it was when I was at a Unison Young Members weekend. I think it was the Liquid Rooms but I might be wrong, it looked like an old church. Was a really good night but that might have been helped by the pink champagne we were taking before it. One of the guys that was with us was from Lerwick. He had never been off the islands before. He was in heaven that night . Actually, his head nearly exploded when he seen the size of the 24hour Asda.

Must've been very early nineties, probably 92, and a can't mind what name I went by. Either lost boy or my own. I was introduced to one of the lassies that ran the club by the resident at Cubik Andy Stentiford who went by the name of the Mariner and used to occasionally guest at moist. Her name escapes me now but she was a tall skinny blonde lassie. My opening track was a techno number called the lords prayer. My hands were shaking so much I could hardly get the record on the deck. I was 17 or 18 at the time. Found the link to the tune but dunno how to embed it. https://youtu.be/wx0c13WFjgI That will be Alana by the sounds of it. Yeah remember when he used to play.

queensferryjambo Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 UFO first then Pure on a Friday at the Venue. Wave, Disco Inferno, Tribal Function on a Saturday at the Venue. Still got my membership cards for some of those clubs. Worked at Pure for a bit as well. Most of the other clubs listed by other people I would have been to in the late 80s early nineties era as well. First club I got into underage was Cinderellas.

The entrance to Amanda's is still there in the shopping centre, I think they did food on the first floor and the club/bar was downstairs. I might try and get pics when I'm down later. I'm not from here originally but according to the GF there was loads of clubs now there's only really one actual club, Pitchers, which by all accounts is rough. The Ship Inn is closed now. Not sure how long for though. Pubs open and close all the time down here.

Debut 4 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) Century 2000, The Biz(now Club Tropicana), The Red Hot, Walkers, not very imaginative😁. Had many good nights though, alot with the football guys I played with back in the early 90s at the time. I also remember a wee club down Queensferry Street Lane I went to around 96 as a teammate knew the guy that owned it. Can’t remember it’s name though? Music was cracking. Mainly house music. Out of them, I preferred The Biz or The Red Hot. The Biz in particular. It was just off the back of the rave scene and the place was heaving as more and more people had to head for the clubs. The music was varied but decent, keeping away from cheese. The Red Hot was handy for an end of night kebab from Topkapi before the long walk home to the Calders. Taxis just kept blanking you because they wanted back into the town centre for a bigger fare😁 Edited July 26, 2020 by Debut 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The odd we trip to the Metro in Saltcoats, Moist in Rosyth (scene of my first ever DJ set), another place in Fife that escapes me, and laterly the Bunker at Camps. Many years later on I got right into Split on a Tuesday night and We are Electric on a Wednesday night at Cab Vol. An honourable mention to Taste and Luvely at various times and venues over the years.

We were back out again two minutes later when we saw all these guys sucking the face off each other on the dance floor (Tin Pan Alley) Quite a lot of trips to Fife too And Elgin 🤷♂️🤯. Can’t remember why, I’m thinking it might have been to do with The Hitman and Her...ended up in a police station at the end of the night though😞 Im sure i saw an episode of hitman and her, at flicks nite spot in brechin?..brechin city still had an advert for it on their advert boards..in 1994😂😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
