My Review

9 out of 10 stars
I went to Apollo on 6th February after my friend's birthday bash just up the road. It has been years and years since I have been there. I went there once in my late teens, once in my twenties and once in my thirties. Last month I went there (now in my fifties) and Apollo hasn't changed one single bit. The decor is still the same the whole thing is in a time warp!! I loved every second of it. It brought back so many memories. More to the point the DJ was kicking/banging whatever it is you want to say. He was on top form! He played Lovers all night one after the other after the other. He couldn't put a foot wrong that night. Each decade I go, I always come out of there when the last light comes on - about 5.30am and my feet are usually killing me (a sign of having a good time!) I danced so much my feet were numb lol lol lol. I had a fantastic time. The ages ranged from about early forties and older with a speckling of late thirties. The music brought back memories to a time when men were not afraid to ask a woman for a dance and the guys from those times were there that Saturday night a month ago. I intend to go back for my birthday in April hoping that the Lovers Rock played is still as great as last month and the guys are not afraid to "pull a gal fe a dance" and spend the rest of the night on "lock down" while they bend you into all sorts of contortionistic moves - and don't let me get started on the dripping sweat!!! lol lol lol - absolutely fantastic. Loved every minute of it. We had a laugh and a good dance-up and went home happy!! Woke up Sunday morning knackered, feet tingling, still trying to get feeling back into it and the phone ringing non-stop with a "serious" discussion on who got who's phone number and were they going to call!!

1 month later - Apollo here we come - next week (beginning of April) for my 52nd birthday!!

Laters!!
