Every new wave club from mid 80s thru early 90s

Funny to think that all these people are probably in their mid-40s now...

OK, I won't admit how many times I've watched this now.

But I'm thinking mid-40s is probably a bit high. There's no alcoholic drinks in anyone's hands, and in fact, a paper Coke cup in one, so I'm thinking this might have been an under 21 club, or at least a teen night. Circa 86, assuming they're probably late 30s/early 40s at oldest at this point...but I could be over-analyzing. And I am over-analyzing.

Heh.. for some reason as summer has wound down, I find myself wanting to set the 'Wayback Machine' to those years between '82 and '86 more than ever. Thanks again for posting this..[8D]

ARGH! The guy who posted the vid deleted his account.

But...next best thing (or better if you prefer more of them) is the source videos from these. They were apparently from a teen club in Spring Valley, CA, near San Diego called Stratus. And it was new wave, freestyle and other mid 80s hits...

So frickin cool ebbhead. Thanks for posting.

[hello_world]

Yeah!!!!!

[Frau_Blucher]

I just wish these vids didn't make me reaize I danced just like Belinda Carlisle. [B)]

[Vinyladder]

The video clips are not from Krypton 90's aka The Country House 80's on the CT. NY. border. Anybody here ever visit the Country House in the early 80's?

[Spectre General]

I realize this is a ridiculous thing to say, but these videos make me wish I was 20 years older.

What is love after all
but occasional steps
of a dance.........
.......In a trance?

[DJ Phoenix]

This club reminds me of a teen club i used to frequent back, 20+ yrs ago called "Alcatraz", it later became 'Pulsations" it was in Michigan...pretty bad ass, the DJ played alot of good stuff there. How I miss those days. Thanks for the memories.

The club was Spectrum in Spring Valley, CA near San Diego.

I was a regular at Krypton/The Haven/The Ivy in Banksville in the late 80s/early 90s. Miss that place. Very active Krypton 'alumni' group on Facebook.

I was a regular at the Country House. Was done with the place by 86 so never visited during the Krypton/Ivy days. I grew up in Banksville so the club was a short walk away. Killer sound system,they had a wall full of McIntosh amps.

[human clone]

Does anyone know the track at the end of part two (after New Order)?

Thanks!

[Sean]

I wish I could walk into a club these days that has the same look and feel of Stratus. Incredible that everyone looked like they had the time of their lives and there was no alcohol served.

[bigwavedave]

Great stuff! I only went to a couple of clubs back in the day (Skoochies and The Vogue in Seattle), but these vids are a great reminder of the variety of dance songs - and hairdos - that came out of that scene.
