I visited the city yesterday I couldnt resist a visit to my fave childhood place and when I turned the corner there she was... shes had a facelift and looks more beautiful than ever standing on that corner in her imposing position never noticed she has a frieze of grecian people above the door much like the home ales brewery So I went and stood on those steps once more and found myself ringing the intercom I stuttered..... "can I speak to the duty manager please?" Wait a second .....buzz ..the door opens and a very young lady invites me in I ask I know this is a strange request but can I have a look round please I havent been inside this builing since 1981 No problem ...we have folks come visit us from all over the country ....including scotland !! They too tell the same story of packed nights and days in the ballroom and how much they love this building The interior is quite art deco and the bali hi (revolving floor ) is no more its an underlit disco floor like the saturday night fever one I will try to post up a before and after pic for you all to see Sorry If Im a palais bore but its in my soul !!

Stomping Ladies Dance Or Is It Strictly For The Guys?
Dawn you'll remember the same as me then that when stompers came on at the palais if you stood next to the floor you virtually used to stomp without doin it yourself LOLOL
-
Stomping Ladies Dance Or Is It Strictly For The Guys?
Im from the midlands and stomp records usually have a "stompin" beat EG "so is the sun" by world column ..thats why they were called stompers I dance to all of 'em but stomping is much harder to keep going for the 3 minutes of a record Whereas I could shuffle all night without gettin out of breath! Mand
-
Stomping Ladies Dance Or Is It Strictly For The Guys?
Correct me if Im wrong (and you no doubt will) But isn't shuffling where your feet stay in contact with the floor and stompin means theyre lifted off the floor? Thats my take on the difference between the two anyone?
