Nello's Night Club was a fabulous, glitzy and rather camp, although straight Discoteque located in Smith Street, Durban, South Africa...in the 80's
"I was at High School in Durban, South Africa in the mid 80's and we used to go party here! (and also go party at "RONNYZ", "THE BASEMENT", "THE L.A Hotel"; "Raffles at the Maharani Hotel", "THE MED"; "The Malibu"; "The Rivera Hotel"; "330 Point Road" and at various "High School Discos..." jesus...remember those!)
AT "NELLO's" the music was mainly mid 80's Hi-NRG Italo Disco, and we thought the DJ was pretty amazing with his live mixing skills (the ability to mix club records well was definitally a prized skill to have in the 80's!) lol!" Nello's was most famous for it's great music + for having lights underneath the dancefloor! - which in Durban at the time, was as exciting as mankind landing on the moon!"
