Could a non-cheesy 80s night be done?

You could, actually, call it The Non Cheesy Eighties Night

I think Alternative 80s is a good idea.

I agree, you won't make anything on the bar at a Northern Soul night. I used to work on the bar in a club that did all-nighters and we could just stand and listen to the music all night because everyone else was speeding their tits off.

They'd all be paying to get in though.

I've passed all the suggestions on

OMG Eagles, we used to call it Seagulls. I was in there once, towards the end, with a work night out. My workpal ended up in a fight in the toilets and we had to leave pronto! She was attacked by two girls but they got the wrong person and my pal ended up putting one of the attackers head down the toilet...in self defence!

Mel Gibson must have been around the time he was filming either Hamlet or Braveheart.

I used to call it Beagles, but I've never been either. I was way too cool to go there

How about themed 80s nights, rather than generic 80s, maybe a ska and reggae night, an alternative/indie night, northern soul night already been mentioned, a rock night. Different crowds I'd imagine.

This is the one I've been to:
"Sound of the Crowd is an alternative 80's club, upstairs at The Hatchet, Frogmore Street, Bristol on the first Saturday of every month. Playing an eclectic mix of New Romantica, Synthpop, Traditional Goth and New Wave. 9pm until 2am (last entry 1am) £3 before 11pm and £4 after R.O.A.R"

I like the idea of alternative 80s.
