Best Night Club That Used To Be In Leicester?

[Nalis]

Only been to fanclub once. Double vodka red bull for 3 quid - great idea at the time but the low grad vodka gave one hell of a hangover.

Krystals and Palais for me. Had some fun times in those places mid to end of the 90s!

And now the wonder that was Krystals / Creation is going to become a hotel - because people flood to Leicester for a holiday...

Sad really. I went Blueprint many times after FanClub closed, used to stay in there till like 6-6:30 after an all dayer at football, I don't miss those 24 hour sessions

sad news. Used to go Krystals on a Thursday night then sleep in empty house on floorboards with my mates then go school the next day.

Name rings a bell with me. Was it the late 70's? Where was it?

Anyone remember the disco bar in the basement of The Belmont Hotel back in the mid 70's?

Simpkins, Brannigans, Mossie Coast, Zoots, Krystals... probably in that order. Oh, and that place on the right down Welford Road (no, not the Rugby Club!) that always thought it was posh... its name escapes me, though... must be a sign of my old age.

That was Jokers! Then LUXOR. Remember it well

Was that where the Ballatyne's spa is now?

 

Or is it opposite that and is now, IIRC, a charity place to help those in need? Some kind of support for people trying to get into work/find accommodation?
