School Disco, London

Remember when you were younger and usually complaining about how boring school was and how you couldn’t wait to leave and someone would always say "School Days are the Best Days of Your Life” well yes I would agree with them now ive left and I have to live in the big wide world, act like an adult (well once a week) and be responsible for my own actions. Well thank the lord for SchoolDisco, the place you can go back to, to relive your youth. Remember the music, the dancing, the cheesy tunes, snogging behind the bike sheds (or in my case my maths class) and smoking in the toilets ... more

-----Who wants to go back to school?----- No one right?! Remember all the teen anguish, pimples, sweatiness, worrying about if people liked you. School was a tough time for a lot of people, but apparently there are thousands every week who want to go back and relive it at SchoolDisco.com at Po Na Na nightclub in Hammersmith (Aka, Hammersmith Palais). --------How much?--------- I personally loved school. It was a great time for me. However I did not enjoy School Disco nearly as much as I had hoped. For months we had been planning to go there but it was always called off for some reason or ... more

It was a fab night and I highly recommend it to you all: MY EXPERIENCE: I invited 20 friends to join my on my birthday celebration, I booked and paid for all the tickets online as it was easier, I was impressed with the speed at which the tickets were delivered. Also if you have your tickets before the night you don’t have to queue. Everyone arrived at the flat looking fab, School Uniform is such and easy costume to find you can guarantee that everyone will make some ... more

History To the British the School Disco seems a perfectly normal concept (or to me at least). But whenever I’ve mentioned it to any of my friends from abroad they seem to find it a very strange idea. Before we went the last time twenty of us, all in our lovely tarty school uniform, headed into our local pub and caused a bit of a stir to say the least! There were two American ladies who seemed to think we were going to an ACTUAL school reunion! Possible, perhaps, but I dread to think what sort of school that would be! The School Disco was started by Bobby Sanchez after he was fired for playing ... more

It's almost impossible to avoid pulling at schooldisco - almost everyone is young,reasonably good-looking and amazingly flirtatious. The school uniform thing probably helps as well, not least because it dissolves inhibitions - when you already look absurdly like an extra from Grange Hill or a Soho sex show, there seems very little point in preserving your dignity. That said, it's also great for a night out with friends - the eighties and seventies hits make everyone feel warm and nostalgic (unless they're incredibly cool and contemptuous towards anything that could be considered cheesy).
