| - Awesome concept, awesome music, awesome vibe, awesome 80's venue!
I think this is my favorite new dance spot in Charlotte because it is so laid back and unpretentious, and I don't need to stress about my outfit and put on ghastly uncomfortable heels, and I don't have to worry about invasion of my personal space (i.e. no dudes hanging around my backside, and all the space in the world to practice my defunct Hammer dance and running man). Also so awesome is the fact they have all your favorite music videos on while they play the songs, so in case you don't really know quite how to Push it real good, you can cheat and look.
Ya, so they have a cover and parking fee (boo) but then you walk in and you are transported back in the 80s, and you have beer specials at $1, $2 and $3 and friends greeting each other. You have bright lights and posters of your favorite 80's actors, you have a humongo rubik's cube and Fast Times at Ridgemont High playing. The downstairs has sort of open booths where you can just chat and upstairs is the dance floor, with an additional top floor.
This is the place to come unwind and let go of your inhibitions because nobody cares - so what if you're too old, too young, too un-stylish, too dolled up, you have everyone from your mother, to the young break dancers to the John Cusack wannabe's to the born again Michael Jackson's at this joint.
Just come here and let yourself go and test out those dance moves that you secretly practice in front of the mirror at home. I love the diversity, I love the fact that you can come and dance and not worry about what you look like. Although, if you are really concerned, there's a whole wall of mirrors for you to check yourself out, also useful if you want to perfect that Sprinkler move.
I love it and I will definitely be back. I guarantee, even if you're not an 80's aficionado you will find one song to love. Granted, I don't know how diverse they get with their mix, I've only been once, but it's just done up really well.
