Marky Baby 28-02-2005, 17:30 Faces Nightclub used to be on Charles Street. The disco was downstairs and there was a wine bar upstairs. Monday Night used to be the best night, We used to have water fights with the bouncers and could bring records for Glenda Wilde to play. Pogo Dancing to Punk Records was dangerous if you under one of the speakers as they were very low! The club was reincarnated as the Charles Street Underground Sam Miguel 28-02-2005, 17:40 I certainly do remember Faces. That is where I met my wife back in 1980.

I was gutted (NOT) and got a job at London Roads Tiffanys nightclub instead..........£15 a night.......FANTASTIC!!!! swervin 30-07-2007, 16:17 i used to go in most weekends drinking pint for pint of rose remember get rat arsed with my mate once puked up at home just about every room covered in what looked like blood missus went cracker jack happy times shinyhappy68 30-07-2007, 20:47 Monday nights, Shalamar, pop n crisps.
