Two hours of 80s and 90s classics performed live with standing and dancing room at The Continental.
The Continental is hosting the Ultimate Rewind Party on Friday 18 December, a night built around two hours of 80s and 90s classics performed live. It's a long way from a DJ set — the songs are played by a live band rather than run off a playlist, and the setlist pulls from a broad stretch of pop and dance music from across two decades.
Among the names listed are Chaka Khan, David Bowie, ABBA and Duran Duran, so the range is wide. You'll get the disco-inflected side of the 80s alongside the synth-pop and the dancefloor fillers that carried over into the 90s. It's a set that doesn't stick to one corner of the era, so it's as much for the people who grew up on the dancefloor as for those who spent their time with the records at home.
The night is billed as two hours of these classics performed live, and the venue is set up to accommodate both ways of watching: there's standing and dancing room for when you want to get up, and seats available if you'd rather stay put. It's a good bit of flexibility to have in one room, especially when the setlist is designed to work for both.
