When did the Hacienda in Manchester open? I am sure I went there in the very early 80's - I was pregnant in 84 and I would not have gone then. I don't remember it being all dance music though - I think I saw Robert Palmer there
The Hacienda opened in 1982. I don't know about Robert Palmer but the music policy there was pretty wide and it certainly wasn't just dance music, especially in the early years.
If you don't remember it, you were probably there!
