@PRJOE90 correct: Nite Klub, Concrete Jungle, Too Much Too Young and Man at C&A were all filmed at Rotters Club, Liverpool. The second performance of Nite Klub with the stage invasion was filmed at De Montfort Hall, Leicester

@TwoToneRecs Am I right in thinking that The Specials footage is from Liverpool and Leicester?

Nice photo of the ladies of 2-tone, Pauline Black & Rhoda Dakar, at last week's BFI IMAX Dance Craze shindig. As usual, upholding the sartorially strict dress code for 2-tone functions, but with a soupçon of originality;-)
