The History of Date Hookup Spots Sunderland
During the 60s and 70s, Sunderland had its best vibrant nightclub and music scenes. The
Weatheralls was one of the clubs that was a staple in the community and so was the Porama
and the La Strada, which were all located on High Street West. The Rokoko, the Rink, El
Cubana and the Mecca were also popular clubs in the area. Patrons expected to enjoy the
performance of top American and English artists who would pass by and put a stamp on the
night. The Grindon and the Farringdon clubs were also popular clubs graced by the presence
of local and out-of-the-country artists that regularly performed early evening and late
night Sunderland date hookup spots.
There used to be long lines of patrons waiting to go inside every club and every bar during
the 1960s. Most clubs were rammed to capacity during that time. The Walworth Way, for
example was one of them. This club was opened in November 1968 and became popular in no
time. The club had some famous celebrities that visited, some of which were David Bowie,
Pink Floyd and The Who. The club was moved later to High Street West. The Chambers and
Gossip club had thousands of patrons flock to it. It was located in Hutchinson's building.
It became popular in the 90s. It wouldn't be unusual to find people dancing to The Prodigy
and the Adamski Garbage bands.
The Ku was another nightclub that welcomed its regulars for more than twenty years. It was
also located on High Street West. The venue was turned into a community center later on. The
club, Close Encounters, saw legendary musicians and singers like Bo Diddley, playing at that
venue in the 1980s Bentleys, Passion and Pzazz were all located in the same building on
Bedford Street in the 1980s, at different times. A bingo hall was to the left. It was known
as the Top Rank, which became the Blue Monkey later on. Bentley's club opened in 1986 and
was located in Holmeside. It had room enough for 1,300 patrons. In 1994, Pzazz welcomed a
new generation of people who loved to party. The club closed in 2004 and reopened as the
Passion.
Blue Monkey was originally located in the bingo hall on Bedford Street. The new Blue Monkey
club was opened up at the Plaza bingo hall later on.
The Park Lane is a club that was in business for almost twenty years. The Barbary Coast was
located in Monkwearmouth. The Kazbah is pretty much a music venue and not so much a club. It
was a place where artists played regularly. This included Chicken Shack, Steve Marriott and
The Alarm. The Alphonso Trombone Bar had some great memories for clubbers. It was a Cuban
club, but had a mix of varying cultures. The club closed its doors some years after arms
dealing was suspected.
The Mecca ballroom and the Bay Hotel hosted many music legends in concert. Their club nights
were well attended. Visit HERE
