In Sunderland, I always went to Privelige, Pzazz(till I got banned for life ), Ku Club or Annabels if I was going to a Nightclub, I preferred Flares most of the time...
In Durham I liked Klute and Club Elysium

(09 Jan 2016, 1:09 pm)Adrian Yes. It was originally the Mecca complex, with the nightclub including the 'Mayfair Suite'. The likes of Rod Stewart, Pink Floyd and The Who, had all featured over the years.
In the later years, it was known as 'The Palace', and was part of the Absolute Leisure chain. The company was ran by the same guy who was responsible for the Tuxedo Princess in Newcastle, and the Lounge in Newcastle. Towards 2003, the club was barely being used, and it ended up turning into solely a rave venue until around 2005/06. Though I believe the promoters were also running under 18s nights in there.
After that, it pretty much sat dormant, until it was handed over to Tesco.

Appreciate we are half-way through the week - but Amber have a film festival on that lasts until Friday.
I imagine there will be some interesting stuff for those into this sort of thing.

Is it nostalgia when nobody on the forum is old enough to remember it?

The death of the nightclub?
I was just chatting the other day about how much money clubs used to spend to get 'star turns' to appear at their club - wherever it was.
Phats and Small appeared in Birtley one night at the height of their fame.
As did the Vengaboys.
