Rewind and dance

LETTING THEIR hair down is what some do, to get over the tensions of the big city. So how about an event that does some musical rewind? It will be a theme musical night at Taj Connemara Hotel on August 18.

Christened `Retroactive' the 80s Night at Connemara begins at 10- 30 p.m. with EC-41 discotheque fame, DY Wayne playing the best of the 80s and high voltage commercial music. The event which is to take place at one of the biggest banquet halls will have a cover charge of Rs. 400 for couples only. The Taj Connemara Hotel began their theme night last week with the MTV and Citibank card event.

Weekends are never boring for well-heeled Chennaiites. Take in the action that is on the cards.

All eyes are on HFO, whose reopening date is keenly awaited by disco-hoppers. EC 41, the dance floor by the sea, is wooing the crowd with an invitation to DJs from other States, like Mumbai and Bangalore. Gatsby 2000, high up there in the rankings, is of course keeping its doors open to the stream of dancers who flock during the weekend. If political fever sweeps the city through the week, during the weekend, it is plain and simple disco fever.
