Remember Berlins? The Showbar? The Manor? or even Colonnades?

Many years ago the Echo was once quite the party animal - and we weren't the only ones.

Our photographers would hit the town to capture clubbers at some of the hottest events including Jazz Juice and Bump 'n' Hustle and long-forgotten nightspots such as the Nightjar, Bar Med, Bar Tonka and the Millennium Club.

We've raided our archives to bring you these pictures of clubbing nights and venues from the past.

So come with us and take a trip back to when crop tops, piercings and fake tan were all the rage and the smoking ban was yet to come into force.
