It was called Pink Panthers for a while years ago and The Jungle before it became Zoo

I do remember it being called Pink Panthers...............not that I went in of course, as I was much too young

Was it not called Club Europa at some point too?

Twas, but after your time I'm sure. It had foam parties when it was called that I think. Foam parties? Why?

You go out and spend a fortune on an outfit, get your hair done, make up on and then get covering in foam. I never got that. Then again, not many birds in Bolton probably ever spent a fortune on an outfit, got their hair done, or put make up on.

i've not been to a foam party for years!!!! they seemed a top idea when i was in college, until i tried chatting up a bloke with long hair :blink:

 

i wouldnt mind going to one for nostalgia

Did the bloke who run The Jungle not appear on Blind Date dressed and acting like a tit? Seem to remember a photo of him behind the bar.

Remember it being a 'classy' piano bar for a while as PP.

Then it became part of the Indie scene with SPAM as dj.

Remember bouncing around to the Senseless Things in there once or twice.

And they sold "K" cider - a predecessor of alcopops.

Think I went in the Jungle once or twice.

 

You'll be mentioning the Dome next.

What about the Dance Factory?!?!

 

I never went myself, but it did look grim as fook from the outside

 

The 'teen' evenings there were much better than Kiddy Rockerfellas imho!
