Queue Up And Dance - Remembering Quadrant Park 1990-91

Theres never been anywhere like the Quad! is what you will likely hear if you ever meet anyone who went to the legendary Bootle nightclub, Quadrant Park, in the early 1990s. Described as the UKs first superclub and first legal all-nighter, thousands of people danced there every week before it abruptly closed at the end of 1991.

But what made a former Sharon and Tracy club, in a tough, post-industrial corner of North Liverpool, into one of the most important House music venues in the UK? In Queue Up And Dance, Dave Evans explores this history by sharing the personal stories of those who went. Through candid interviews with DJs, doormen, journalists, and, most importantly, the clubbers themselves, we get a unique view of the clubs rise and fall, and working-class life in the North of England during the early 90s.

With an introduction by Emma Warren, author of Dance Your Way Home: A Journey Through the Dancefloor, and an afterword by Melissa Kains, Liverpool-born founder of female and non-binary DJ collective Sisu Crew, Queue Up And Dance offers a shifting patchwork of perspectives that celebrates the cultural significance and enduring joy of clubbing.
