These Pics are from around 1988-1992, they are chiefly people who went to Rebels, the Wap, Yorkshireman's Arms and the Roxy Rock Night, which for some reason was on the first and third monday of the month.

This was taken in the wap around 1990, remember the old pannelling?

Roxy's Heavy Rock Night (Rock Night) was held in the night club which was originally the top rank, and later called Barry Noble's Roxy. The club was (usually) a large towny night club with lots of small dance floors and bars, on a mezanine floor, which looked down on the large dancefloor and stage. There was a large moving lighting gantry with fancy moving lights on it, which moved around all night to the music.

They used to have bands on sometimes, and there was a Miss Rock Night competition I remember too.

When it first started, the rock night was a really big event, and there were hundreds of people queing to get in, and the pub across the road, was full beforehand. I remember, almost everyone going there, even if it meant having the tuesday off work, to recover.

Towards the end I think they became less frequent as rock became less popular during the late 1990s and I remember the night being badly attended, and they stopped opening the upstairs of the club because of lack of demand.

You could get one of these cards by filling in a form. And you would get some tickets for a free bottle of champaigne style cheap drink on your birthday rock night, although I only ever saw the girls drinking it. The card enabled admission at half price. I remember getting leaflets and tickets through the door when there was another rock night due.
