Too young to have attended the Imp but have family who worked there in it's heyday and what a heyday a real A to Z of not just rock.
It's the stuff of legends in these parts and the website that Wadey has posted also has a stall in Nelson Market which is always fascinating and I can stand there awestruck looking at who played the Imp on the posters, tickets and flyers.
I did frequent the Trop in the 80's & part of the 90's which had something of a reputation
Sadly the Trop closed a few years ago leaving not a lot of night life left in Nelson especially with all the pubs closing down but my birth place of Brierfield is even worse with only one pub and two working mens clubs left, at least Barrowford is still busy and a good night out
