The club was Daddy Warbucks, 42 West George St. The building is long gone, replaced by Waxy O'Conners and a hotel.

Wild and wandering memories there.......

I recognised many faces from Glasgow in the mid-1980's, including myself!!

Just spotted 2 ex-colleagues from my days at FLIP (when it was a great shop on Queen St) - fabulous footage!!

As soon as I found out about it (not until 1986, alas), I attended every 'happening'.
