Re: The Con club
It didn't look that good when I was a regular in the late 50s.
Those 'vestibules' in the corners weren't there, the stage was higher, and the ceiling wasn't red. |

Re: The Con club
Might be my memory playing tricks on me, but I'm sure they didn't have freestanding tables and chairs back in the day - just a row of tip-up seats fixed along the side and back walls.

So we were both regulars in the late 50s? Just think, we may have danced together- eat your heart out, Less. I remember queuing up for the New Years Eve tickets-the queue went right down the steps and along the road-you just had to have tickets for that night. Wyonie, you're right- almost everyone had to stand up, there were just seats along one or two of the walls- the girls all sat there, the boys all stood at the other side-it took a lot of courage to walk right across the empty dance floor to ask a girl for a dance and a lot more courage to walk back alone when she said 'No'. |
