And, of course, a little background on the three memorable clubs.
Petaling Jaya’s legendary club Piccadilly, which ceased operations 20 years ago, drew large crowds — especially during the weekends — to its legendary venue at Damansara Atria, with an average of about 350 people coming mainly because of its good music, ambience and bright neon lights. Piccadilly was known for their unforgettable tea dance parties.
Tin Mine, from its original venue at the original Hilton KL (then Crowne Plaza, now demolished) on Jalan Sultan Ismail, was the place to be and be seen on Saturday nights back in the 80s. It was the joint where the rich and beautiful hob-nobbed. The interior was styled around the theme of a tin mine. Many Malaysian bands like The Strollers, The Revolvers, The Falcons and Alleycats performed regularly there. Some of the bands later became recording artistes and some had successful stints overseas. That era was considered the Golden Age of Malaysian bands. Dress code was enforced during weekends, but not on week nights. Club Tin Mine did not permit plain T-shirts, beanies, dew rags, headbands or bandannas, hoodies, cut off or sleeveless shirts.
As for Scandals, it was 1986 and the club scene was bucking the country’s economic trend. The club to be seen in was Scandals. It was at the back of KL Plaza (now Fahrenheit 88), on Jalan Bukit Bintang, KL. It only gets packed in the weekends and the crowd are all dressed up to kill. Scandals was also known to have the best crowd when it comes to “A” Listers & celebrity’s in the social scene.
November 18’s party will be held at the recently opened venue at KX Kuala Lumpur, located at Life Centre, 20, Jalan Sultan Ismail, KL.
Presale tickets for the party is priced at RM55 and includes one drink + a Piccadilly Mix Cd for first 200 walk ins. There will also be tickets at the door at RM75 + 1 drink.
