	Video Disco Bar Card The Video Disco Bar was the Nottingham Palais response to the growth of alternative dance music and music television. Pop-videos such as Herbie Hancock's seminal 'Rockit' and Duran Duran's Rio were screened here to hundreds of underage drinkers.
	Harveys Bar Harveys Bar had it's fair share of local beauty pageants. Check out the photo gallery above for Adam's bonus glamour pic.
	Ritzy Membership Card During the late 80's the Nottingham Palais reinvented itself as 'Ritzy's' Possibly in an attempt to shake off its seedy image, but later reverted to it's old name.
	Easy Street Flyers With events like 'Miss wet t-shirt' and BBC radio DJ Steve Wright, it's easy to see the attraction for 'young guns' Adam Fisher and Chris Cooper. Just don't mention the time Chris was held by his ankles and shaken upside-down by one of the club's bouncers!
	Libertys Membership Card This venue was located opposite the 'NEW' Royal Hotel.
	The Variety Club Ahem! Members of Nottingham video-band Ramba Zamba fed their appetite for late night sleeze at this fine Radford establishment.
