Any recommendations? I haven't explored any of the night life here and was curious about where I could find a place that had a 80s or 70s night.

Thanks!

Best 80s night I have found is Sunday night at Elysium on Red River- usually gets going from 11 onwards

Thanks! Looks like exactly what I was looking for in terms of the 80s. Don't think I have any black goth clothes to wear... left those behind a few years ago. It'll be fun though I'm sure.

How about funk or disco? I looked at Yelp and Google and can't seem to find anything.

There are a few 70s/80s live cover bands that play funk, disco... not the same as the old trash-80s club scenes, but lots of fun still.

check out these bands, they usually play places like Oasis, Cool River, Speakeasy, etc.

The Eggmen are a great Beatles cover band and when they play the Oasis (April 16; May 7) the dancing can be great!
