Joe Morts was a dance hall on Blackburn Rd, Upstairs next to what was The Big Crown, I referred to it in regards to yer comment of possibly being the Stag Night Capital, People used to come from as far as Blackpool/ Manchester/Preston etc,to the Morts, in later years La-De- Dahs attracted folk, mainly from local towns, so not a real comparison, Morts was a RocknRoll dance hall, think it closed down mid-late 60s, it never sold alcohol n that was becoming the trend in nightspots, so i think contributed to its closure.
By the way Anne remember the owd pub on abbey street, was closed down awhile n then some bright spark re-opened it as a Topless Bar, think it only lasted 2/3 years? I reckon this Lap Dancing place will do well to last that long.
