In the mid eighties we used to go to the Carlton pub in Burnley every Friday and Saturday night religiously, it was a cool rock pub back then, now sadly closed. At the end of each Saturday night we would wander down to the Cat's Whiskers, then Later Angels nightclub and just drink / dance the night away. Those were the days when no one cared what you dressed like, a rock band t-shirt was just as acceptable in the clubs as shirt and trousers.
Happy days.

Hadn't it changed into The Ritzy by the time Hitman and Her visited? It was definitely The Ritzy when they last visited in about '89.
I used to go to the Carlton a bit too, I was one of the founders of The Mud Club over at the Kestrel Suite if you remember that?
Worked at Xpo for a while too, which was never anywhere near as busy as Angels was in it's hey day.
